The Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence (GPAI) is an integrated international initiative that brings together governments, industry, academia, and civil society to advance human-centric, safe, secure, and trustworthy AI. Originally launched in June 2020 with 15 founding members, GPAI grew to 29 countries before merging with the OECD's AI policy work in July 2024 to form an integrated partnership of 44 member countries. GPAI operates through a multistakeholder expert community of over 500 AI specialists organized into working groups on Responsible AI, Data Governance, the Future of Work, and Innovation and Commercialization, supported by Expert Support Centres in Paris, Montreal, and Tokyo.

Theory of Change
GPAI's theory of change operates through multilateral AI governance: by convening 44 member governments alongside experts from industry, academia, and civil society, GPAI builds international consensus on responsible AI standards, principles, and policy frameworks. These shared norms—anchored in the OECD Recommendation on AI—are then adopted or referenced by member states in national legislation and regulation. Working groups produce technical research and practical guidance that helps policymakers translate AI principles into enforceable policy. The merger with OECD in 2024 strengthened this pathway by giving GPAI's outputs direct integration into OECD's established intergovernmental policy channels. The cumulative effect is a global governance architecture that promotes safe, trustworthy AI development and deters harmful or ungoverned AI deployment by coordinating norms across major economies.
