About the Challenge  

data.org, with support from Microsoft, is launching the Generative AI Skills Challenge, a global grant for organizations to help train and upskill teams on generative AI to drive social impact. With a particular focus on its fair and community-led integration in low- and middle-income countries and contexts (LMICs), the Challenge aims to accelerate digital inclusion, socioeconomic mobility, and skills advancement and acquisition for workers from historically marginalized populations around the world.
