The African AI & Equality Toolbox Webinar 2: Systems Requirements

October 6 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

In many African AI deployments, system requirements are defined by international technical partners or funders, often without fully understanding the day-to-day realities of use. This leads to design choices—like requiring high-speed internet, English-only interfaces, or complex interfaces—that make tools ineffective or even harmful. In this webinar we look at how requirement setting should function as a bridge between vision and use: Aligning system features with cultural context, infrastructure gaps, and social expectations; Identifying constraints early on—connectivity, literacy, consent, power dynamics—and building around them and making conscious trade-offs between speed, scale, and equity.
