“AI and sustainability - cure or curse?”
While AI can help resolve data issues in sustainable investing, it can create problems such as information breaches and inherent bias in data.
If you are appalled by the never ending stream of news about racism and racial discrimination coming out of the US, spare a thought for Brazil. Unlike in the US, where black movements have been historically strong and organised, their counterparts in Brazil have struggled to gain traction. Barriers such as economic exclusion and lack of access to education have prevented their growth. This is a country of more than 200 million people where over half of the population is black and yet less than 5% of C-level positions are occupied by black people. Black women are the worst affected: they earn almost 45% less than their white male peers in contrast to the 27% gender pay gap for white women, according to 2019 data by IBGE, Brazil’s national statistics institute.

The proliferation of internet-enabled devices has allowed children to access the internet at an increasingly younger age, often sharing their personal data without fully appreciating the risks and consequences of doing so. Accordingly, organisations that collect children’s personal data online have a shared responsibility to ensure that such personal data is collected with the appropriate consent obtained and is adequately protected, and to allow children to safely participate in the online space.
