MTN Ghana trains civil society organisations on artificial intelligence
Telecom giant MTN Ghana has organised a one-day Artificial Intelligence (AI) workshop for Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) at its Head Office in Accra, as part of efforts to deepen understanding of AI and its impact on society.
Telecom company MTN Ghana has hosted a one-day Artificial Intelligence workshop for Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) at its headquarters in Accra. Around 100 attendees participated in the event, which is part of MTN's strategy to enhance human resource development in Ghana. In her opening remarks, MTN Ghana's Acting Senior Manager for Corporate Communications, Efua Falconer, emphasized that AI is transforming every aspect of life and urged stakeholders not to be left behind.
Falconer highlighted that the workshop featured seasoned AI professionals who guided participants through practical and interactive sessions, encouraging active engagement and question-asking. She stressed that while government regulates AI and companies like MTN build the necessary infrastructure, CSOs like theirs play a crucial role as the voice of vulnerable groups such as the youth, market women, and school children.
Falconer concluded by urging participants to apply their newfound knowledge beyond the training session and to embrace the opportunities presented by AI.
