Artificial Intelligence Practice

For Africa’s 4th Industrial Revolution, it will be vital to ensure there is accountable use of artificial intelligence in the public sector as well as ensuring AI doesn’t amplify or replicate existing real-world inequalities.

As governments begin to adopt artificial intelligence technologies in more diverse contexts, there is a growing need to better understand how to identify the most appropriate solutions, build local capacity for development of AI and create the right enabling environment to ensure responsible use in both the private and public sectors.

Our Goal

Contribute to the development of standards and norms for accountable and inclusive implementation of artificial intelligence in the public sector.
Provide actionable evidence-informed recommendations on the enabling environment, human capital and domestic financing to support broader ethical adoption of artificial intelligence.
Support the emergence of research and innovation on AI for development in Africa through peer networking, fellowship programs and grants.
