How can policy interventions on the continent better represent the diversity of its people while redistributing risks and opportunities in a way that reduces, rather than exacerbates, existing digital inequalities?
With anticipatory foresight on digital governance issues and a focus on the ability of digital solutions to address social protections, personal agency, and inclusion in their design and implementation, our work assesses what it takes to support Africa’s digital transformation. In each of our programmatic areas– including AI and Advanced Tech Policy, Data Policy and Governance, Digital Economy and Indicators, and Information Integrity– our newsletter rounds up the following work:
- Digital and financial inclusion stats from Tanzania, South Africa, Kenya and more.A policy paper on Agentic AI
- A Cybersecurity policy brief
- An essay collection on Embodied Data and AI
- Africa Just AI Conference Proceedings
- Cross-country engagements in Leiden and South Africa
- Our ED’s recent acceptance into a leading Foresight cohort.
