About NSEA 2026

Leading the conversation on effective & ethical artificial intelligence

The N-SEA (National Symposium on Equitable AI) Symposium is an annual national convening hosted by Morgan State University's Center for Equitable AI and Machine Learning Systems (CEAMLS). It brings together researchers, industry leaders, policymakers, educators, and students to examine how artificial intelligence is designed, deployed, and governed across sectors.

The 2026 theme, "Human-AI Collaboration: Empowerment, Agency, and Belonging," will explore how AI systems can be developed to augment human capability while preserving human decision-making authority, dignity, and meaningful participation. Sessions will examine technical design choices, governance frameworks, workforce implications, and real-world case studies that highlight both the promise and risks of collaborative AI systems.
