** Leadership
------------------------------------------------------------

Greetings, readers!

For this week of the Leadership newsletter, we look at how artificial intelligence (AI) is used by nonprofits, and its impact on communities and the environment. First, tech nonprofit Fast Forward is helping organizations develop AI policies ([link removed]) for better, more equitable usage. Next, across industries, workers are being displaced by AI and automation. But nonprofits can empower individuals ([link removed]) with the skills they need to thrive. Then, while AI carries risks of amplifying inequality, investors and nonprofits can play an active role in shaping AI to align with more equitable socioeconomic impact ([link removed]) . Finally, from our premium webinar “AI for An Equitable World: How Your Organization Can
Approach AI Responsibly,” ([link removed]) Amy Sample Ward talks about the complicated nature of AI’s environmental impact ([link removed]) .

As always, we welcome feedback. Please feel free to email us at [email protected] (mailto:[email protected]) .
