Partner with EDF
AI displacement is not a problem any single organisation can solve. It is also not a problem that solves itself once the models are good enough.
Partners work with us on three things: the programs that get people back to income, the data that shows what is happening, and the mechanisms that would let a post-AGI economy fund its own transition.
Why Partner With Us
AI displacement is not a problem any single organization can solve. It requires coordinated action across sectors — companies that are restructuring, governments that set policy, NGOs that reach communities, and institutions that train the workforce.
EDF sits at the center of this ecosystem. We've built the programs, the curriculum, and the operational infrastructure. What we need are partners who can help us deploy at the scale the problem demands.
We are early, and we say so plainly: our first cohort has not run yet, and nonprofit registration is still in progress. The numbers beside this are what we have built and committed to, not outcomes we are claiming. Our full status report is public.

AI Labs & Model Providers
You are shipping the capability. We are where the people it displaces land. Three ways to work together, none of which require you to run a program yourself.
What you get
Capability Floor commitments: model access and compute credits allocated to vetted participants for the length of their transition. Your name on the floor.
Alignment Corps placements: take graduates into your safety, evals, and data teams — people who can read code and reason about failure.
Alignment Corps curriculum: co-design the evaluation and red-teaming syllabus with us.
Ground-truth data: a seat on the think tank behind the Displacement Data Standard, with methodology attached and co-authored research included.
Direct accounts of AI displacement from the people it happened to
Corporate Partners
Companies laying off developers or restructuring engineering teams have both the obligation and the opportunity to invest in workforce transition. EDF works with corporate partners to design outplacement programs that go beyond resume workshops — we provide structured reskilling, incubation pathways, and ongoing career support.
What you get
Custom transition programs tailored to your workforce and industry
Branded cohort programs that demonstrate genuine commitment to displaced workers
Impact reporting and ESG-aligned metrics for stakeholder communication
Access to EDF's alumni network for future hiring of AI-skilled talent
Tax-deductible contributions in most jurisdictions
New: help design the transition-insurance pilot — a private pool that would fund transition for displaced staff from the productivity gains that displaced them. First pool planned for 2027 with two to three employers.
NGOs & Nonprofits
Organizations focused on labor rights, economic development, digital inclusion, and social impact find a natural ally in EDF. We provide the technical expertise and curriculum design — you provide the community relationships, local presence, and on-the-ground infrastructure.
What you get
Co-branded programs that extend your mission into AI workforce transition
Ready-to-deploy curriculum and training materials
Shared research and data on AI displacement in your focus regions
Joint grant applications and collaborative fundraising
Cross-referral pipeline for workers who need services beyond reskilling
Government & Public Sector
National and regional governments are beginning to grapple with the policy implications of AI-driven displacement. EDF brings program design expertise and an operational model that can be adapted to any regulatory environment. We are actively seeking first engagements with labor ministries, education departments, and economic development agencies.
What you get
Policy advisory and technical assistance on AI workforce programs
Pilot program design and implementation support
Research partnerships on local AI labor market impact
Open-source policy toolkits for rapid program deployment
International best practices from EDF's global network
New: the Displacement Data Standard as the measurement layer for any transition-insurance, wage-insurance, or AI-dividend scheme under consideration.
Academic Institutions
Universities and training institutions are rethinking their curricula in the face of AI. EDF partners with academic institutions to co-develop programs that bridge the gap between traditional education and AI-era employment — combining academic rigor with practical, industry-connected reskilling.
What you get
Co-developed curriculum for AI-era workforce skills
Guest lecturers and practitioners from EDF's network
Research collaboration on workforce displacement and transition
Student placement and internship pipeline into EDF programs
Joint certification programs recognized by industry partners

Fund the Capability Floor
You cannot reskill for the AI economy without access to AI tools, and compute is exactly what someone between jobs cannot afford. This is the single highest-leverage in-kind contribution a technology company can make.
If you are a cloud, GPU, model, or developer-tooling provider, we will distribute your credits to vetted candidates, track what they build with them, and report back on usage and outcomes. Recipients are selected on need and commitment, not on follower count.
Offer creditsWhat we need
Compute credits, model API credits, or tooling licences that can be allocated to individual recipients.
How they are allocated
Applicants are vetted on demonstrated need and a concrete build plan. Allocation decisions and criteria are documented.
What you get back
Usage reporting against the credits you donate, and the projects built with them — including the ones that failed.
What we will not do
We will not resell donated credits, transfer them to third parties, or allocate them to anyone connected to EDF's founders.
