On January 28, 2025, we held a two-day workshop in Nairobi focused on the Kenya AI Statement of Principles, attended by over 100 stakeholders from various sectors. This event, hosted by the Ministry of ICT & Digital Economy in collaboration with KICTANet and supported by the UK government, represents a pivotal step in Kenya's pursuit of a secure, inclusive, and ethical AI future. The Kenya AI Statement of Principles will guide the balance between innovation and responsibility, ensuring the protection of human rights, privacy, and social equity while promoting sustainable development in line with Vision 2030 and the Digital Economy Blueprint. https://www.kictanet.or.ke/shaping-the-future-of-ai-in-kenya/
