Empower Africa’s Future Through AI Innovation
Donation protected
Imagine a future where young African innovators develop AI-powered solutions that transform healthcare, agriculture, education, and business. That future starts now.
I am Samuel Alomenu, a lead coordinator for the ATF AI Challenge, a groundbreaking initiative by the African Technology Forum (ATF). Our mission is simple: equip young Africans with AI skills, mentorship, and tools to solve real-world challenges.
In 2024, we trained 450 students across 23 universities in Ghana. Their AI solutions have already made an impact from improving healthcare diagnostics to optimizing farming techniques. In 2025, we’re doubling our reach to 1,000 students in Ghana and Nigeria, giving them the skills and opportunities to shape Africa’s AI-driven future.
The Problem & Why It’s Urgent:
Africa is home to one of the youngest and fastest-growing populations in the world, yet opportunities to learn artificial intelligence (AI) remain limited. Many students have the talent and ambition, but they lack access to training, mentorship, and essential AI tools.
The ATF AI Challenge bridges this gap by providing:
- Hands-on AI training tailored to real-world challenges.
- Mentorship from industry experts to guide students' careers.
- Opportunities to develop and showcase AI solutions that solve pressing local issues.
By supporting this initiative, you’re not just funding an event, you’re investing in the next generation of African AI leaders.
The ATF AI Challenge 2025 will bring together 1,000 university students across 50 institutions in Ghana and Nigeria to:
- Learn AI through hands-on workshops led by industry experts.
- Develop AI solutions that tackle real challenges in healthcare, agriculture, education, and business.
- Connect with mentors and organizations that can help launch their careers.
With your help, we can equip these students with the knowledge, skills, and tools to make a lasting impact.
Impact & Success Stories
In 2024, we saw students build AI-powered agricultural forecasting tools and healthcare triage systems, solutions with the potential to improve millions of lives. With your support, we can scale this impact even further in 2025.
Your donation will directly fund:
- Training workshops and expert mentorship for students.
- AI tools, platforms, and software licenses for participants.
- Event logistics (venues, materials, transportation).
- Scaling projects so students can continue developing their AI solutions beyond the challenge.
