“Artificial intelligence has the power to transform lives and strengthen economies. Africa is well-positioned to contribute to the digital economy. By 2050, our continent will have the largest, fastest-growing workforce in the world. There are many success stories about what our young people are doing on the continent with artificial intelligence. We have to invest in them. It will be a win-win for everyone. The bottom line, is that for A.I. to serve humanity as a whole, we must get it right in Africa and everywhere else.” President Kagame | #AIforGood Global Summit 2026
“Today, connectivity is no longer the end goal. We are now transitioning to the era of data-driven growth. Artificial intelligence is the common denominator that will redefine healthcare, education and energy, among many other sectors. As a commission, our mission is to ensure this transformation does not widen existing divisions.
The task ahead of us is urgent, but we will face challenges. The objective isn’t just to have a conversation. It is to ensure everything we agree to do, gets translated into tangible and practical outcomes.” President Kagame
President Kagame joined fellow Co-Chair Marc Benioff and Vice-Chair Doreen Bogdan-Martin for a fireside chat marking the launch of the AI for Good Global Commission. He then chaired the Commission’s inaugural meeting alongside Marc Benioff and Doreen Bogdan-Martin.
The high-level initiative brings together 44 commissioners to identify practical ways to harness artificial intelligence to address some of the world’s most pressing challenges.
“We want to harness the good of AI through industry, through policy making, and making sure that really we get the results. That is the most important thing.” President Kagame | #AIforGood Global Summit 2026
I do not celebrate Independence Day. In 1959, my family had to flee Rwanda.
The so-called independence did not bring my family back to Rwanda! As a result, i was born a refugee.
I celebrate 4th of July instead. That’s the day when all Rwandans had equal rights to the country.
Today at the Rwanda Defence Force Command and Staff College in Nyakinama, President Kagame presides over the Rwanda Defence Force Senior Command and Staff Course Intake 14 Graduation Ceremony. Follow live: https://t.co/JJqPPRCe4o
