NEWS

Find us on the Global Center on AI Governance.

We're excited to announce that the African Observatory on Responsible AI (AORAI) will now be housed under the newly established Global Center on AI Governance (GCG).
This strategic integration marks a pivotal moment for AORAI and its mission to bring African voices, values, and experiences to the forefront of global AI discourse. By joining forces with GCG, AORAI's impactful work in setting standards and championing responsible AI practices across the African continent will receive an unprecedented boost.



So, why is this such a game-changer?
Amplified Impact
AORAI's focus on amplifying African perspectives in the global AI dialogue perfectly aligns with GCG's mission of forging equitable and beneficial AI practices worldwide. This integration means our efforts will now have an even broader reach, ensuring that the voices of Africa are heard loud and clear on the global stage.
Enhanced Expertise
Partnering with GCG provides AORAI access to a wealth of expertise and resources in the field of AI governance. By leveraging this collective knowledge, we can deepen our understanding of the complex issues surrounding AI ethics and governance, empowering us to drive meaningful change more effectively.
Global Advocacy
While AORAI remains rooted in its commitment to championing African perspectives, our collaboration with GCG allows us to engage with a diverse range of stakeholders from across the globe. By fostering dialogue and collaboration on a global scale, we can work towards building a more inclusive and equitable AI ecosystem for all.
Join us as we embark on this exciting new chapter in our journey towards creating a responsible AI paradigm that reflects the rich diversity of our global community. Together, we can shape a future where AI serves as a force for good, benefiting communities worldwide.
Thank you for your continued support and commitment to the African Observatory on Responsible AI.
