OECD AI Principles

The OECD AI Principles are a set of five foundational recommendations adopted by OECD member countries in 2019 to promote trustworthy AI that respects human rights and democratic values. The principles cover AI innovation and growth, human-centered values and fairness, transparency and explainability, robustness and security, and accountability. Organizations use these principles as an international benchmark for responsible AI governance, influencing corporate policies and regulatory frameworks worldwide.

Global AI Governance Needs Adaptive, Inclusive Frameworks, ITU Report 2025 Concludes

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) published its Annual AI Governance Report 2025 on December 15, 2025, outlining principles and guidance for steering AI development responsibly at a global level. The report advocates for governance frameworks that are proactive, inclusive, and adaptive to the rapid pace of AI evolution and its cross-border impacts. While the report does not impose binding obligations, ITU publications carry weight as reference standards for national regulators, international bodies, and multinational enterprises shaping their compliance postures. For enterprise compliance teams operating across multiple jurisdictions, the report provides a consolidated view of emerging governance expectations that may inform future regulatory developments in markets where ITU guidance shapes policy. Compliance professionals should review the report's framework recommendations alongside existing regional instruments such as the EU AI Act and OECD AI Principles to identify alignment gaps or emerging obligations in their governance programs.
