FEWA AI SUMMIT

FEWA AI Summit Kigali will converge Africa’s AI pioneers, policymakers, and innovators to architect scalable solutions for Education and Workforce transformation. This event is part of the FEWA Series of high-level events focused on AI integration in Education and Workforce development in Africa. It is a build up from a preceding executive roundtable on AI held at the South Park Commons in Manhattan, New York after the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA 79) high level week.

This 1-day program bridges AI integration in Education, Ethical governance and the Future of work through actionable frameworks. With 45% of Africans offline and 230M jobs requiring AI-augmentation by 2030, we have to reimagine the Future of Education and Work using a kaleidoscope of calculated foresight, urgent pragmatism and innovation.

The forum is in exclusive partnership with GSMA and will be collocated during MWC Kigali 2025 at the Kigali Convention Centre on October 23rd, 2025. Learn more about the FEWA project: https://fewa.africa/
