In his recorded address at the opening session of the 10th International Fatwa Conference, Miguel Moratinos, UN High Representative for the Alliance of Civilizations, highlighted that artificial intelligence and digital technologies present valuable opportunities to foster peace, moderation, and interfaith dialogue.

 However, he cautioned that these tools can also be misused to incite hatred. Moratinos called for empowering religious leaders to effectively leverage technology in countering extremism and hate speech, underscoring the importance of adopting ethical frameworks that safeguard human rights.

He also affirmed the United Nations’ full support for the conference’s mission to strengthen the capacity of fatwa institutions in the age of artificial intelligence.
