Almeida
作为巴西前国家信息技术政策秘书（2011-2015年）和巴西互联网指导委员会（CGI.br）主席，阿尔梅达教授帮助塑造了国家和全球的互联网治理与政策方向。他还主持了全球互联网治理未来多利益攸关方会议（NETmundial），并担任全球网络空间稳定委员会委员。凭借卓越领导才能和学术贡献，他当选巴西科学院、美国国家工程院和世界科学院院士。
他目前的研究横跨人工智能、算法、伦理和治理，探讨算法系统如何影响民主，并产生可能加剧不平等的社会和经济影响。他的著作《数字世界的治理》（Governance for the Digital World，帕尔格雷夫·麦克米伦出版社，2020年）和《算法制度主义：社会和政治生活不断变化的规则》（Algorithmic Institutionalism: The Changing Rules of Social and Political Life，牛津大学出版社，2023年）倡导基于伦理原则的算法民主化，将数字治理与更广泛的社会变革连接。
在与乌兹别克斯坦政府的合作下，联合国教科文组织设立了“联合国教科文组织—乌兹别克斯坦比鲁尼奖”，以表彰在人工智能伦理研究、科学合作以及实际应用方面的成就。该奖项以著名博学家阿布·雷汉·比鲁尼的名字命名，他以推动科学知识和文化交流而闻名。该奖项旨在促进人工智能伦理领域的科学对话和国际合作。
该奖项每两年颁发一次，授予三位获奖者——个人、机构或组织——他们的研究、政策贡献或创新方法和应用对人工智能伦理的发展产生了重大影响，并有助于实施《人工智能伦理建议书》中概述的原则。该奖项的第一届将于2025年11月6日在乌兹别克斯坦撒马尔罕举行，进一步强化联合国教科文组织推动人工智能造福全人类的使命。
Beruniy Prize - Meet the Laureates of the 2025 EditionThe 2025 Award Ceremony of the UNESCO-Uzbekistan Beruniy Prize for Scientific Research on the Ethics of AI took place on 6 November 2025 in Samarkand, Uzbekistan. Three Laureates were celebrated for their outstanding contribution to scientific research, international cooperation and practical application in the field of ethics of AI. Institute for AI International Governance, Tsinghua University, ChinaThe Institute for AI International Governance at Tsinghua University, China, is awarded the Prize in recognition of its outstanding contribution to advancing research on the ethics of artificial intelligence, combining academic excellence with tangible policy impact.
I-AIIG
Established in 2020, the Institute for AI International Governance (I-AIIG) at Tsinghua University is a leading center for academic research and policy dialogue on the ethical and governance dimensions of artificial intelligence in China. Under the leadership of Professor Xue Lan and with the participation of distinguished scholars such as Turing Award laureate Andrew Chi-Chih Yao, the Institute brings together expertise from multiple disciplines to explore key issues shaping the future of AI governance at both national and international levels. I-AIIG actively contributes to research, capacity building, and multi-stakeholder collaboration in the field of AI governance. Among its flagship initiatives are the International AI Cooperation and Governance Forum, which fosters global dialogue on AI policy and ethics, and the U&AI Youth AI4SDG Bootcamp, which supports young innovators in using AI to advance the Sustainable Development Goals. These initiatives have engaged diverse partners from the United Nations system, governments, academia, and the private sector.Through its research and international partnerships, I-AIIG works to promote inclusive and responsible AI governance and to support the development of a safe, equitable, and sustainable global AI ecosystem.Professor Susan Perry and Professor Claudia Roda
Professors Susan Perry, human rights specialist, and Claudia Roda, computer scientist, were jointly awarded the Prize in recognition of their innovative work on youth-centred and anticipatory ethics of artificial intelligence, bridging research, education, and social inclusion.Perry&Roda
Since 2012, they have bridged their disciplines to examine digital technologies through a human rights lens. Their collaboration addresses critical issues in a variety of areas of research including privacy and data protection, surveillance, education, digital communication and media literacy, and ethical AI development and use.
Their work challenges conventional silos by integrating multiple perspectives: hardware with software, scientific research with policy-making, and innovation with societal values. Through research, advisory work, and teaching, they explore how technology profoundly shapes society and individual lives—emphasizing that these impacts cannot be understood in isolation.
Professors Roda and Perry bring established careers to this partnership, lending depth and credibility to their interdisciplinary approach. Their research encourages a crucial balance: advancing technological innovation while safeguarding citizens' fundamental rights. This holistic perspective has influenced students, policymakers, and practitioners navigating the complex intersection of technology and human dignity.
Professor Virgilio Augusto Fernandes de Almeida
Professor Virgilio Augusto Fernandes de Almeida, Professor Emeritus of Computer Science at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) is awarded the Prize in recognition of his outstanding contribution to advancing ethical, inclusive, and human-centered approaches to artificial intelligence through scientific research and public policy.
Almeida
As Brazil’s National Secretary for Information Technology Policies (2011–2015) and Chair of the Brazilian Internet Steering Committee (CGI.br), Professor Almeida helped shape both national and global internet governance and policy. He also chaired The Global Multistakeholder Meeting on the Future of Internet Governance (NETmundial) and served as a commissioner for the Global Commission for the Stability of Cyberspace. His leadership and scholarly contributions have earned him election to the Brazilian Academy of Sciences, the U.S. National Academy of Engineering, and the World Academy of Sciences. His current research bridges AI, algorithms, ethics, and governance, examining how algorithmic systems influence democracy and generate social and economic impacts that may deepen inequality. His books Governance for the Digital World (Palgrave Macmillan, 2020) and Algorithmic Institutionalism: The Changing Rules of Social and Political Life(Oxford University Press, 2023) advocate for the democratization of algorithms grounded in ethical principles, connecting digital governance to broader social transformations. In partnership with the Government of Uzbekistan, UNESCO established the UNESCO-Uzbekistan Beruniy Prize to recognize ethics of AI research, scientific cooperation and practical application at all levels. Named after renowned polymath Abu Rayhon Beruniy, a figure known for advancing scientific knowledge and cultural exchange, the Prize fosters scientific dialogue and international collaboration in the area of the ethics of AI. It is awarded biennially to three laureates - individuals, institutions, or organisations - whose research, policy contributions, or innovative approach and applications have significant impact on the development of the ethics of AI, contributing to the implementation of the principles outlined in the Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence. The first edition of the Prize will take place on 6 November 2025 in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, reinforcing UNESCO's mission to promote AI for the benefit of all humanity.
