The Atlas of Artificial Intelligence for Human Development in Latin America and the Caribbean

Is a dynamic knowledge resource designed to equip decision-makers with the tools necessary to navigate the region’s AI transformation. Framed through a navigational metaphor, the Atlas offers structured, data-driven insights across four core dimensions: Ports of Departure analyzes baseline indicators to position LAC within the global AI landscape; Lighthouses identifies frontier applications, regulatory trends, and forward-looking risks and opportunities; Regional Stars showcases successful initiatives and the enabling conditions for scaling them; and Terra Incognita explores future scenarios and policy pathways in uncharted territories of AI governance. More than a static report, the Atlas is a living, evolving platform designed to inform national strategies, strengthen regional AI ecosystems, and guide the responsible integration of AI into labour markets, education systems, and public governance, ensuring that Latin America and the Caribbean seize the benefits of AI while safeguarding human development.
