General
This programme seeks to support the accelerated and responsible rollout of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for the UK’s development and growth objectives in Ethiopia. It will deliver this through a specialist AI facility providing technical assistance to public sector and agency actors, operational support on use of appropriate AI models and build local skills and capacities for utilising AI for good. The goal is to leverage AI to improve delivery across the UK’s country business plan in areas such as healthcare, education and government administration.
