Episode 7

Our online book launch, in full!

Published on: 28th October, 2026

AI for Equity is out. This episode is the full recording of our online launch on publication day, 27 October 2026, with Jenny Garrett OBE and Leah Garrett, hosted by Erica Farmer.

The book is AI for Equity: Creating a More Equitable Society for All. It looks at who AI is being built for, who gets left out, and what it would take to build it differently. If you missed the launch, this is the whole thing, as it happened.

Thank you to Erica for hosting us, and to the twelve people whose stories and work run through this book: Dr Mona Ashok, Christian Ortiz, Jazz Rasool, Sumathi Menon, Dan Gallagher, Twan Wildeboer, Keshav Malhotra, Dr Pauldy Otermans, Sam Samarasinghe, Anna Jones, Rodney A. Brown and Finbar O’Hanlon. And thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way. We could not have done it without you.

About the Podcast

AI for Equity
Where Technology meets Social Justice
AI for Equity is the intergenerational podcast where technology meets justice. Co-hosted by Leah-Sunshine Garrett and Jenny Garrett OBE, we explore how artificial intelligence can be used to drive equity and inclusion - rather than deepen existing inequalities.

Each episode features thought-provoking conversations with innovators, researchers, and change-makers working at the intersection of AI and social justice. Whether we're unpacking algorithmic bias, discussing inclusive design, or spotlighting grassroots solutions, AI for Equity challenge
