Fabian Lütz

Fabian Lütz works as a Legal Officer at Equinet on AI and equality/non-discrimination in the framework of the Project Equality-proofing AI systems: “Equality by Design, Deliberation and Oversight”. He is also a PhD candidate at the University of Lausanne (UNIL) and specialises in European law, gender equality and non-discrimination law, AI regulation and algorithmic discrimination. Fabian taught courses and seminars on Gender Equality, Algorithmic Discrimination and Work Life Balance in Lausanne at several European universities and the Ecole national d’administration (ENA).

He studied law in France (licence and maîtrise en droit), Germany (First and Second Legal State Exam) and Belgium where he obtained an LL.M. in European Law and Economic Analysis at the College of Europe in Bruges. From 2015 to 2020, Fabian worked as a Legal Officer in the Gender Equality Unit at the European Commission. Previously, he worked for law firms in Belgium and Germany.

He has published widely on gender equality, AI and algorithmic discrimination (inter alia with Oxford University Press, Springer, Palgrave, Routledge and BRILL, his research is available at: www.algorithmic-discrimination.com ) and speaks regularly at academic conferences across Europe. Most recently he wrote the chapter on Artificial Intelligence and Gender-Based Discrimination in the Oxford University Press book on Human Rights and Artificial Intelligence (2023), Quintavalla Alberto, Temperman Jeroen (eds.).

Fun fact: Fabian enjoys running and is always looking for the next half marathon to participate in (even though it has been a while, and it is unclear whether there is a correlation between following the negotiations, finalisation and adoption of the EU AI Act for his PhD and the reduced running activity). As the AI Act is now set in stone, time to hit the road again…
