Since 2012, the Human Technology Foundation has worked as an independent think and do tank focused on keeping humanity at the center of technological progress and its responsible oversight.  We believe technology should be part of the broader social conversation, not separate from it.

With members across Paris, Montreal, and Rome, we're building a global movement around this vision.

We work at the intersection of research, policy, and practice through three interconnected roles:

- We coordinate international multidisciplinary research projects, bringing together diverse perspectives to tackle the complex challenges underlying technological advancement and societal impact.
‍
- We bridge the worlds of academia, civil society, and business, translating research insights into actionable guidance and helping to make sure real-world concerns inform scholarly work.
‍
- We provide expert counsel to decision-makers, from policymakers and government officials to corporate leaders and entrepreneurs, helping them govern the ethical dimensions of technology with confidence.

Our approach cuts across traditional boundaries, focusing on three core areas:

- Applied ethics research
- Policy and government advisory
- Corporate and entrepreneurial guidance

Become part of a community advancing ethical technology:

- Contribute to applied ethics research at the cutting edge
- Shape public debate on critical issues from AI governance and digital sovereignty to youth protection online
- Help build more inclusive, responsible technologies
- Create actionable guidance for business and policy leaders
