All-Women AI PhD Program Launches in Africa

A pioneering Africa-Europe collaboration aims to train 700 African Doctor of Philosophy (PhDs) in artificial intelligence (AI) over the next decade. The first intake of this program, however, will be unique: it will consist entirely of women. This initiative is the brainchild of CORE AI, a research partnership uniting universities from both continents. The program intends to enrol 100 African women with PhD aspirations in AI each year, with the first all-female cohort starting in February 2025. Supporting women researchers, particularly in fields with low female representation like AI, is a core principle for CORE AI. While this specific focus on women is not limited to the African continent, CORE AI emphasizes the need to address systematic discrimination faced by women in AI research, even within their own European institutions.
