What if policymakers could access rigorous evidence in minutes rather than spending weeks or months synthesising research? 
AI has the potential to transform how policymakers access evidence when it matters most. Currently, conducting a rigorous evidence review to test a policy solution can take up to 1,000 hours. This delay makes it challenging for busy teams to access the insights they need when making urgent, high-stakes decisions.
Making a reality how evidence is gathered, assessed and used in policymaking means developing tools that are transparent, robust and designed around the realities of government.
Join Nesta online for a lunchtime webinar exploring how AI is changing the role of evidence in public policy. We’ll be joined by Artan Zymberi, director of change and transformation at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, Nick Dean, joint head of the Civil Service Policy Profession Unit, and the Nesta experts behind our Policy Atlas AI tool.

 

FaithTech's annual UK weekend hackathon for redemptive technology, rooted in a biblical approach. 
BUILD is a hackathon, an event where people team up to design and build something in a short space of time. At BUILD, that means a two-day sprint where teams take on real projects using technology, redemptively. You pick up something that matters, join a team, and build a solution to it before the weekend is out.
It runs around the clock. Some teams pace themselves, some build through the night! The majority of people who attend are developers, but you do not need to be technical to take part. Designers, product and project managers, product owners, first-time coders, the best teams are often a mix.
Past teams have built with a range of tech, including React, Laravel, Python, Node.js and Vue.js, mobile apps in Flutter and React Native, and game and 3D work in Unity and Blender, with LLMs and other AI increasingly in the mix.
