Partners: Enap (LIIA) · Federal Government (NIA)
Period: August 2024 (LIIA) · 2026 – present (NIA)
Role: Workshop organization, facilitation and reporting
Area: AI & Government
Context
LIIA is the artificial intelligence lab of Enap, Brazil’s National School of Public Administration. NIA, the Federal Government’s AI Hub, is one of the goals of INSPIRE and organizes how new AI initiatives enter government.
My role
I took part in the ideation of LIIA in 2024. At NIA, I worked on designing the onboarding process for AI initiatives: we defined the maturity levels (TRL) and the artifacts for each stage, identifying good practices in the current process (as is) and turning them into the future process (to be).
Results
- Creation and launch of LIIA
- Identification of new AI initiatives in government through NIA
Lessons learned
AI is still a new and little-known topic in government, which raises many questions among civil servants. This shows how important good processes are, with well-established AI governance and ethics.
