Building a Distributed Ecosystem for Education AI Sovereignty
Education AI Futures functions as a networked hub, not a silo. We collaborate across institutions, government, communities, and industry to build locally powered learning systems that serve African learners.
Our Partnership Network
We collaborate with:
Universities & Teacher Training Colleges
Designing new programmes in AI and education, co-supervising graduate research, and hosting pilot deployments.
Curriculum & Examination Bodies
Shaping the future of assessment and educational standards through evidence-based policy and tool development.
Schools & Community Learning Centers
Piloting tools in real learning environments, providing feedback, and co-designing solutions that work for diverse learners.
Government Agencies & Regulators
Building evidence-based AI-in-education policies, data governance frameworks, and procurement guidelines.
Industry & EdTech Startups
Committed to responsible, non-extractive partnerships that prioritize local benefit over data extraction.

A Commitment to a Different Trajectory
Education AI Futures is not merely a lab or a project. It is a commitment to a different trajectory: one where African institutions design, own, and govern the AI systems that will mediate how future generations learn, remember, and imagine.
If you are invested in learning, locally powered—this is your ecosystem.
