Description

In this episode, we break down Research Summaries: Artificial Intelligence and Data for Nonprofits, a collection of research examining how emerging technologies are reshaping decision-making, transparency, and capacity across the nonprofit sector. The conversation explores how nonprofits are using data systems, artificial intelligence, and digital tools to improve service delivery, measure impact, strengthen accountability, and respond more effectively to community needs.

We also take a critical look at the challenges—data gaps, ethical concerns, digital inequities, and resource constraints—that can limit adoption, particularly for smaller and under-resourced organizations. Grounded in research but focused on real-world application, this episode helps nonprofit leaders understand where AI and data can add value, where caution is needed, and how to approach technology in ways that align with mission, equity, and trust.
