    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Artificial intelligence is becoming part of Africa’s digital transformation. Governments are exploring AI for public services, healthcare, education, agriculture, tax administration and fraud detection. Businesses are adopting AI tools to improve productivity, automate processes and compete in an increasingly digital economy.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Africa does not have a shortage of digital strategies.

    Community Networks: The Missing Piece in Africa’s Digital Transformation (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Africa has made remarkable progress in expanding digital infrastructure over the past decade. Governments have invested in national broadband strategies, mobile network operators continue extending coverage, and ambitious digital transformation agendas have become central to national development plans. Yet despite these advances, millions of people, particularly those in rural and underserved communities, remain excluded from meaningful Internet access. The challenge is no longer simply one of t
