How AI could support female victims of violence in Mexico

Victims of violence who are seeking support often have to repeat their experience several times over and to multiple people. This can exacerbate trauma.

A project in Mexico proposes to address this with the help of artificial intelligence (AI).

Figures from national statistics agency INEGI show that two-thirds of women in Mexico have experienced some form of violence, with almost 44 percent suffering abuse from a partner.

The project is exploring the use of AI-based speech-to-text transcription to reduce the need to share distressing details over and over again, and to speed up the reporting process.
