The Safe AI for Children Alliance: Our Vision for Year One

This is a simplified version of our comprehensive year one strategy, created to provide an accessible overview. For more detailed insights into our work, please reach out to us directly.

Our Strategic Goals for the First Year

We’ve developed a comprehensive one-year strategy for 2025, to guide our efforts in raising awareness, building alliances, and creating meaningful impact.

Here’s a brief overview of our goals for the first year:

Raise Awareness of AI Risks to Children

Highlight the dangers of inappropriate content from AI chatbot ‘companions.’
Draw attention to emerging psychological risks posed by grief-bots.
Raise awareness of the growing threat of AI-generated CSAM and its implications.

Build an Alliance for Impact

Unite experts, educators, and advocates to amplify the message and foster collective action.
Foster collaboration among stakeholders to create unified progress on child safety and AI governance.
Strengthen partnerships that prioritise innovation in ethical AI practices and shared solutions.

How We Will Achieve This

Content Creation: Publish thought-provoking articles and collaborate with experts to explore critical AI-related topics.
Expert Engagement: Conduct interviews with leading professionals to share insights and solutions.
Awareness Campaigns: Use social platforms to engage with parents, educators, and the broader community.
Alliance Building: Invite experts and advocates to contribute their voices and join our mission.

We have defined key activities within each strand of activity, and defined metrics for success.

At the end of Year One we will:

Assess progress toward raising awareness of AI risks to children.
Evaluate the growth and impact of the alliance, including member contributions and engagement.
Review content performance and community feedback to identify areas for improvement.
Define priorities and refine objectives for Year Two, building on the momentum and lessons learned.

MISSION

SAIFCA Statement on AI Risks to Humanity’s Future

The Safe AI for Children Alliance (SAIFCA) recognises that advanced AI systems could pose catastrophic or civilisation-level risks to humanity. While our work is focused on present-day dangers affecting children, and broader societal risks that will impact their generation, we also support efforts to raise awareness of more far-reaching challenges that could emerge within their lifetimes.
We believe children deserve to grow up in a world that is not only safe today, but prepared for the future they will inherit.

We also recommend the Centre for AI Safety’s statement on mitigating the most serious risks from AI.

Join Us in Making a Difference

By working together, we can protect children and shape a future where AI supports rather than endangers children's well-being.
