Children engaging with technology

Designing AI That Protects Our Children

Every child deserves technology that respects their agency, protects their wellbeing, and amplifies their voice. Join us in shaping the future of ethical AI design.

Oxford Child-Centred AI

The Oxford Child-Centred AI (OxfordCCAI) Design Lab engages in research activities aimed at designing better AI for children. We are part of the Human-Centred Computing research theme at the Department of Computer Science at the University of Oxford.

We collaborate with organizations both in the UK and internationally to examine the ways that AI impacts children's experiences and their digital rights, and how we can design technologies fostering children's rights and agency.
