Hands-on tutorial for building sovereign AI agents using African datasets (Deep Learning Indaba 2026)
# Building Sovereign AI Systems with Agentic AI
This repository contains materials for a tutorial submitted to the Deep Learning Indaba 2026.
## 🌍 Overview
This project demonstrates how to build agentic AI systems using African datasets.
Participants will learn how to:
- Build Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems
- Create tool-using agents
- Design AI systems grounded in local context
## 🧪 Demo
The notebook shows how to build a Rwanda Policy Agent that:
- Answers questions using local policy data
- Performs reasoning across documents
- Generates actionable insights
## 📁 Dataset
Located in:
data/rwanda_policy_docs/
## 🚀 Goal
To empower developers in Africa to build sovereign AI systems using local data and open tools.
