ACAII ACTS AI INSTITUTE and ACTS

Expertise

Connecting evidence,
capability and adoption.

Three connected areas bring the institute’s research and programme work into focus.

01 / Policy & governance

Evidence for
institutional choices.

Responsible digital transformation requires institutions to understand the choices around technology, its use and its effects. Policy research creates space to examine those choices in their African contexts.

  • Research on responsible digital technologies
  • Connections between evidence and institutional decisions
  • Dialogue across research, policy and practice
