Grounded Intelligence

Written by researchers, practitioners, and domain specialists across Sub-Saharan Africa, each piece offers grounded perspectives on how AI is being built, tested, and deployed in African classrooms — with a particular focus on foundational literacy and numeracy. Drawing on expertise spanning machine learning, natural language processing, computational linguistics, and education policy, the series surfaces insights that global conversations too often miss. Designed for funders, researchers, system leaders, and technologists, Grounded Intelligence aims to ensure that the people closest to the challenge are shaping how it gets solved.
