DivinAI is an open and collaborative initiative promoted by the European Commission's Joint Research Centre to measure and monitor diversity indicators related to AI conferences, with special focus on gender balance, geographical representation, and presence of academia vs companies. This paper summarizes the main achievements and lessons learnt during the first year of life of the DivinAI project, and proposes a set of recommendations for its further development and maintenance by the AI community.
