Co-Creating Code: Ethics, Knowledge and Culture in the Age of AI
Be a Part of the Future
We want to hear from you as we launch Co-Creating Code! Join us for an afternoon of thought provoking questions, experiences, and interactive sessions with leading voices from Cambridge University and beyond.
Date: Tuesday, 14 October 2025
Location: Barbara White Room, Newnham College, Cambridge
Time: 4pm - 6pm (London, UK time)
During the two hours we will discuss, experience and leave with thoughts around:
- How do we understand knowledge in the age of AI?
What is the global reach of AI?
How can we use AI to preserve traditional cultures and languages?
How can we use AI to foster kindness?
How far can we push the idea of AI being like humans and thinking and acting like humans?
Hosted by:
Centre for Resilience and Sustainable Development (CRSD) is an international centre that advances transdisciplinary methods of action-research in social science.

About Cocreating Code Conference Series
Launching on 14 October 2025 at Newnham College, Cambridge, Co-Creating Code begins a global conference series convened by the Centre for Resilience and Sustainable Development to confront the dual challenge of rapidly advancing digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, and immersive reality, and the persistent exclusion of diverse voices from their design and governance. Unlike conventional technology gatherings, it is designed as a systems level intervention that brings together leaders from academia, industry, policy, philanthropy, and communities to co-create pathways for equitable and resilient technological futures. We are entering an era where technological innovation is moving faster than social equity. Women represent only six percent of artificial intelligence researchers, and facial recognition systems misidentify darker skinned women at rates as high as thirty five percent. Co-Creating Code responds to these inequities by embedding community knowledge and interdisciplinary collaboration at the centre of technology governance. The series seeks to transform emerging technologies from tools that concentrate power and reinforce exclusion into engines of resilience, inclusion, and justice.
