AI Civic Action Accelerator – 2026

The AI Civic Action Accelerator is a free, six-session, part-time programme that helps individuals or small teams turn early-stage ideas about AI and public policy into practical solutions. It focuses on issues such as youth online safety, AI transparency and equity, civic participation, government use of AI, and AI-related job disruption.

The programme provides policy training, peer workshops, advocacy guidance, and the opportunity to pitch a solution to a relevant decision-maker. No AI or policy expertise is required, and it is especially suited to people with limited policy experience. Applicants must be 21+, fluent in English, and have a developing civic AI policy idea.
