FINDHR (Fairness and Intersectional Non-Discrimination in Human Recommendation) is a project funded by the EU framework program Horizon Europe and unites 13 partner organizations in developing anti-discrimination methods, algorithms, and training for algorithmic hiring.

Algorithmic hiring is the usage of tools based on Artificial intelligence (AI) for finding and selecting job candidates. Like other applications of AI, it is vulnerable to perpetuating discrimination. Considering technological, legal, and ethical aspects, the EU-funded FINDHR project will facilitate the prevention, detection, and management of discrimination in algorithmic hiring and closely related areas involving human recommendation.

FINDHR aims to create new ways to ascertain discrimination risk, produce less biased outcomes, and meaningfully incorporate human expertise. Moreover, it aims to create procedures for software development, monitoring, and training. On completion, the project’s publications, software, courseware, and datasets will be made freely available to the public under free and open licenses.
