From cutting-edge research and policy advisory to capacity building and global partnerships, our work helps shape responsible AI governance across Africa and the Global Majority.


Research and Evidence

We are leading research with a beating heart

We conduct cutting-edge research on the social impacts of AI and the governance systems needed to ensure fairness, accountability, and equity. Grounded in local realities and led by a diverse team of experts, our work informs responsible AI policy across Africa and the Global Majority.


Policy Advisory and Development

We are forging more just and equitable global AI policies

Effective AI governance starts with context-aware policy. GCG provides expert advisory services to governments, multilateral institutions, and civil society, helping shape national, regional, and global AI strategies rooted in human rights, equity, and inclusion. Our team brings regional expertise and local knowledge to every engagement, ensuring policy solutions reflect the realities of the Global Majority.


Partnerships, Networks and Collaborations

We are rallying a global collective of change-makers

Collaboration is central to advancing responsible AI. We work with global institutions, regional leaders, and grassroots networks to co-create policy, research, and training initiatives that reflect diverse perspectives. From the African Union and IDRC to Meta and the Gates Foundation, our partnerships drive impact across regions and help shape inclusive AI governance at scale.


Capacity Strengthening

We are empowering the next generation of AI researchers and innovators

Building skills for responsible AI is at the heart of our work. Through partnerships with institutions like the University of Cape Town and University of Pretoria, we deliver Africa-centred courses on AI ethics, policy, and human rights. Beyond the classroom, we’ve trained researchers in over 150 countries to generate data, inform policy, and lead evidence-based advocacy for inclusive AI governance.
