Because No PolicyShould Be Madein Isolation.
NDD unites policymakers, researchers, industry leaders, and civil society to build evidence-based governance frameworks - advancing India's vision of ethical, human-centric AI for the world.
Our goal is to ensure that innovation advances public interest, equity, safety, and trust.
India’s policy ecosystem on AI, technology and governance is fragmented, siloed, and disconnected from the communities it serves. NDD was founded to end that isolation.
Where Policy Meets Purpose
NDD operates across four interconnected domains to drive policy change at the intersection of technology, governance, and society.
