ABSTRACT
Christina Colclough is the founder of The Why Not Lab, an organization whose mission is to ensure that the digital world of work is empowering rather than exploitative. She holds a Ph.D. from the University of Copenhagen and has extensive global labor movement experience.

She is also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts in the UK, an Advisory Board member of Carnegie Council’s new AI and Equality Initiative, and a member of the UNESCO Women4EthicalAI Platform and the OECD One AI Expert Group.
