What Is AI Governance?

AI Governance refers to the policies, standards, and oversight mechanisms that guide how artificial intelligence is designed, deployed, and used responsibly.

It ensures that AI systems are:

  • Ethical – aligned with human rights and societal values

  • Transparent – understandable and accountable in decision-making

  • Secure – protected from misuse, bias, and exploitation

  • Inclusive – developed with Africa’s social, economic, and cultural contexts in mind
