Job description

The GIZ project “AI Hub for Social Protection of the DCI” aims to support countries in responsibly adopting AI technologies for enhanced inclusive, efficient and effective social protection systems, while focusing on mitigating associated risks. The AI Hub works within four action areas and pursues its mission through (i) creating and sharing knowledge products with and through a sector-wide global expert network, (ii) advising social protection institutions in designing, implementing and governing responsible AI systems and strategies, (iii) developing AI DPGs in SP (Digital Public Goods) as well as standards and guidelines, (iv) conducting capacity building around AI and data literacy for the SP context through the creation of learning materials and online trainings targeting social protection practitioners.

The AI Hub for Social Protection is an endeavor of the Digital Convergence Initiative (DCI) since 2025. The DCI was launched in 2021 under the umbrella of the Global Partnership for Universal Social Protection (USP2030), with a view to harmonization and standardization of the digital ecosystem in social protection. The DCI is coordinated by GIZ in partnership with Expertise France (EF), the Spanish International and Ibero-American Foundation for Administration and Public Policies (FIIAPP), and the International Labour Organization (ILO). Under the DCI structure, the AI Hub supports countries in navigating the rapidly evolving landscape of AI while promoting the principles of responsible, innovative and sovereign AI adoption.
