Governance

AI governance, safety and policy, and how institutions adopt AI responsibly.

Focus areas

  1. AI governance

    Who decides how AI is used in schools, organisations and public life, and on what terms.

  2. AI safety

    Anticipating harm before deployment, including safety in education settings.

  3. Policy

    AI and digital policy, with a focus on Africa.

  4. Responsible adoption

    Institutional readiness, stakeholder engagement and a practical path from pilot to practice.

Before We Press Play

What could go wrong?

The framework asks that question before a tool is switched on, not after.

Coming soon. The full Before We Press Play framework will be published here.
