AI in EdTech Africa Community

Expert Rating

n/a

Overview

The current education model in Africa is outdated and ill-equipped to prepare graduates for real-world challenges. Many rely on government jobs rather than creating their own opportunities, as traditional schooling offers little to no encouragement for independent thinking or innovation. To address this, we are building a community focused on leveraging AI to drive innovation in the EdTech sector. Our goal is to develop and implement AI-driven solutions that modernize education in Africa, empowering young people to think creatively and embrace entrepreneurial opportunities.

We are seeking individuals to lead and manage Deep Funding Community Hub initiatives. These initiatives aim to establish and foster decentralized Deep Funding Communities centered around specific topics or areas of interest where a dedicated community would be valuable.

Examples of potential hubs include:

  • Sustainability Community Hub
  • Women in AI Community Hub
  • Africa Community Hub
  • Asia Community Hub
  • French-Speaking Hub.
  • Among many other options

The primary objective of these Community Hubs is to expand Deep Funding in a decentralized way. This involves engaging new members, providing information, sharing best practices for submitting funding proposals and building strong, collaborative communities. Regular online meetings will also be an integral part of these initiatives to connect, grow, and support the community.
