Key point

The UN unveiled a plan to use ethical AI technology to record testimonies while protecting the identities of survivors affected by conflict.

Details

The UN, together with UNITAR and the Kigali Genocide Memorial, announced an ethical AI approach to protect survivors of conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV). The event was organized to discuss how AI technology can support peacebuilding and survivor protection.

The 'Hearing Their Voices' project uses ElevenLabs' voice technology to help survivors safely share their testimonies. The AI-generated anonymized voices eliminate the risk of exposing survivors' identities while preserving the tone, clarity, and emotional weight of the original voice.

This technology allows survivors to speak out without fear of social stigma or retaliation, helping the international community secure essential evidence for prevention and accountability. The ElevenLabs Impact Program is providing this technology free of charge for this public-interest purpose.
