Initiative for the Development of Artificial Intelligence (IDIA): Francophone Policy Research Network

About

Led by Niyel in Senegal, the Initiative for the Development of Artificial Intelligence (IDAI) was a research project aimed at addressing the lack of data, evidence, and strategic focus on artificial intelligence (AI) in Francophone Africa. The project played a crucial role in advancing responsible AI adoption by fostering research, policy development, and capacity-building initiatives tailored to the region’s unique context and needs.
