Today, we have extended our collaboration with @Microsoftea to continue accelerating digital transformation in #Kenya and beyond.
Together we will:
✔️ Strengthen public sector digital capabilities for efficient service delivery
✔️ Advance data governance and responsible AI for evidence-based policymaking
✔️ Empower youth, women, and persons with disabilities to thrive in the digital economy
✔️ Catalyze innovation ecosystems through strategic public private partnerships
In 2025, our work with @Microsoft under the Africa Centre of Competence for Digital & AI Skilling at the Kenya School of Government upskilled 17,000+ public servants in digital and AI technologies.
