The Ministry of Posts, Telecommunications and Digital Economy MPTEN, in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme UNDP, held a workshop with sectoral Strategic Development Offices BSDs to advance the implementation of the National Artificial Intelligence AI Strategy. The session followed the National Workshop on Artificial Intelligence Landscape Assessment AILA conducted from October 14-17.
Chaired by Mr. Appolinaire Loua, Director General of the BSD of MPTEN, the workshop brought together general managers and representatives from various sectoral BSDs. Participants reviewed the findings from the AILA diagnosis, discussed their implications across different sectors, and identified initial actions to integrate AI into public policies.
The participatory approach highlights MPTEN's commitment to developing a national AI strategy grounded in real-world sectoral needs. By leveraging the expertise of BSDs, the Ministry aims to ensure that AI adoption is aligned with practical challenges and opportunities within each sector.
