Governance & Integrity

Our commitment to editorial independence, transparency, and methodological rigor.

Editorial independence

The Global AI Education Policy Observatory operates independently. Our analysis, briefs, and public outputs are not determined by funders, partners, or commercial interests. We aim to provide policy-relevant insight that is accurate, balanced, and in the public interest.

Conflict-of-interest policy (COI)

We disclose potential conflicts of interest that could affect the objectivity of our work. Contributors, advisors, and partners are asked to declare relevant financial, institutional, or advocacy interests. Where a conflict could be perceived, we state it clearly in the relevant output or on this page.

We do not accept payment in exchange for favorable coverage or for placing specific policy positions in our analyses.

Partner disclosure policy

Partnerships and collaborations are listed on our site and in relevant publications. Funding sources for specific projects or outputs are disclosed where appropriate. Our partners do not control our editorial or analytical conclusions.

Methodology standards

  • Interview memo process: We use quote approvals where requested and protect anonymity when agreed. Interview-based content is clearly attributed or labeled as anonymized.
  • Survey and dataset limitations: We state sample size, methodology, and limitations for any survey or dataset we publish or cite. We do not overclaim representativeness.
  • Citation standards: Charts, figures, and data are cited with clear sources. External data is labeled so readers can distinguish our analysis from primary sources.

Citation standards

When we use external data, reports, or quotes, we cite the source. In charts and tables, we include source lines. We encourage others to cite our work with appropriate attribution (e.g., "Global AI Education Policy Observatory, [title], [year]").
