Summary
Carine Roos is a doctoral researcher at the University of Sheffield who investigates how AI, platform governance, and Big Tech reshape democratic participation, accountability, and digital sovereignty. With nine years of cross-sector experience, she blends critical social theory and feminist technology studies with applied research in AI ethics and digital governance. Her work draws on field-based ethnography in underserved Brazilian communities and policy collaborations with UNESCO, Avaaz, GIZ and the Brazilian Internet Steering Committee to translate grassroots insights into evidence-based governance interventions. As founder of Newa and earlier social-impact ventures, she has designed ESG/DEIB strategies that reached over 20,000 professionals across Latin America, reflecting a rare mix of academic rigor and hands-on program delivery. Carine’s research emphasizes intersectional, bottom-up countergovernance strategies to hold AI systems and corporate–state entanglements accountable, and she brings practical communications and convening experience from coordinating NETmundial’s multilingual outreach. Fluent in bridging academic, policy and civic-tech worlds, she combines an LSE MSc in Gender Studies with journalism and sociology roots to pursue equitable, politically informed AI governance.
