Funded by Google.org, the AI Research Foundations for Higher Education project aims to build a sustainable and scalable ecosystem for advanced AI education across Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and South Africa.
Through a Train-the-Trainer model, the project supports HEI lecturers in 30 HEIs in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and South Africa with the skills to deliver a localized version of the Google DeepMind curriculum to penultimate and final-year STEM students. This approach provides the training, mentorship, and resources required to bridge critical AI education gaps and cultivate a new generation of African AI talent.
