Building Inclusive AI: Why Expanding Global Majority Participation Matters in 2025

Current AI systems, predominantly trained on data from North America and Europe, fail to reflect the linguistic, cultural, and contextual diversity of the Global Majority. This leaves billions underserved and reinforces systemic biases. Addressing this gap isn’t just a technical challenge—it’s a moral and economic imperative.

🔍 Key Challenges & Opportunities

1. Linguistic Diversity: Over 1,500 African languages remain underrepresented in AI models. Initiatives like Masakhane are driving NLP research for African languages, while AI4D Africa supports local AI innovation to close this gap.

2. Cultural Relevance: AI trained primarily in Western contexts often fails to interpret local norms accurately. The Brookings AI Equity Lab is advocating for an AI safety framework informed by Global Majority perspectives.

3. Infrastructure Gaps: Many AI research hubs in the Global South lack the necessary computing power and datasets. Programs like the Deep Learning Indaba are training African researchers and fostering collaboration to build local capacity.

Critical Resources for Action

• Oxford Martin School examines barriers to Global Majority participation in AI governance.

• World Economic Forum’s Blueprint outlines strategies for equitable AI-driven economies.

• Carnegie Endowment’s AI Governance Project identifies gaps in global AI narratives and governance frameworks.

🌍 A Path Forward

Achieving truly inclusive AI requires diversifying training data, investing in local AI ecosystems like RobotsMali AI4D Lab, and reshaping ethical frameworks through initiatives such as the AI Commons. By centering Global Majority voices, we can create AI that serves all communities equitably—rather than reinforcing existing disparities.
