AI in Africa Policy Project – AI4DProject description

The AI in Africa Policy Project (AI4D) aims to address the gap in African perspectives on AI as well as policy and regulatory readiness, by undertaking a mapping of AI usage, governance and societal impacts in Africa. In the context of RIA’s ongoing work on digital inequality and digital inclusion, the project will ascertain what measures have been or need to be taken within and by the public sector to ensure that as large numbers of people are exposed to AI, they are safeguarded from associated harms, through the adoption of mechanisms to mitigate identified risks.
