Values assessment
Mapping stakeholder and public values to potential harms.
Definition
A values assessment systematically maps affected stakeholders and public values (e.g., privacy, fairness, human rights) to potential harms that may arise from an AI solution. It supports proportional risk evaluation by identifying which values are implicated, the nature of potential harm, and the appropriate mitigation and governance measures.
