Egyptian AI Governance
Coverage from Egypt Independent, Tech Review Africa, and others

Egypt’s AI governance work spans national policy and regional coordination.
Domestic instruments include a national AI strategy, a national governance framework and a charter for responsible AI, while Egypt’s regional role includes chairing the AI Governance Working Group of the Arab Permanent Committee for AI and Emerging Technologies. The group is expected to develop guidance and mechanisms supporting the Arab Charter for AI Ethics. Cooperation with other countries and discussions about implementation and capacity building also connect governance principles with practical policy work.
