The road to approval: Inside Ghana’s AI strategy and KNUST’s leadership

When Ghana’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) Strategy received cabinet approval in February 2026, it signalled the culmination of years of consultation and institutional leadership, with the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi (KNUST) at the centre of the national effort. From early ethical debates in 2022 to high-level national consultations in 2025, KNUST’s Responsible AI Lab (RAIL) shaped the ideas, frameworks and stakeholder engagements that ultimately defined Ghana’s AI roadmap.
