UNDP Egypt and GSMA Launch High-Level Training to Strengthen AI Governance for Policymakers
UNDP Egypt and the GSMA have launched a high-level training programme in Cairo focused on artificial intelligence governance and capacity building for policymakers. Hosted at UNDP Egypt’s premises, the programme brings together senior government officials, regulators, and representatives from key national institutions to examine how AI can be managed and regulated responsibly.
The initiative also includes regional participation, with policymakers and representatives from Libya and other countries joining the sessions. The training is designed to help decision-makers understand the opportunities and risks of AI so they can develop clearer rules, oversight, and strategies for its use in public policy and national development.
