Dieter Schwarz Stiftung and the University of Oxford renew partnership
OII is a credible source of AI governance evidence that Australian policy teams occasionally draw on — worth tracking for relevant outputs.
Key points
- Oxford Internet Institute and Dieter Schwarz Stiftung renew a multi-year AI research and education partnership.
- Programme covers AI and future of work, AI in government and policy, and cross-disciplinary emerging tech research.
- No direct Australian angle; useful as background on internationally funded AI governance research capacity.
Implications for Australian agencies
- Monitor APS policy teams working on AI in government may want to monitor OII publications arising from the 'AI, government and policy' programme for internationally grounded evidence.
Implications are AI-generated. Starting points, not advice — see methodology for how they're framed.

The University of Oxford's Oxford Internet Institute and the German Dieter Schwarz Stiftung have renewed their research collaboration, committing to three programmes: AI and the future of work, AI in government and policy, and cross-disciplinary AI research. The partnership includes a Global AI Research Hub linking OII with institutions internationally. Research outputs — particularly on how governments can use AI effectively while maintaining trust and democratic accountability — may inform evidence bases relevant to Australian AI governance practitioners, though no direct Australian engagement is described.
Implications for Australian agencies:
- [Monitor] APS policy teams working on AI in government may want to monitor OII publications arising from the 'AI, government and policy' programme for internationally grounded evidence.
