About the Network
Inspired by From Technology to Social Value Creation, a powerful and visionary work by distinguished political scientist and world-renowned social innovation & impact architect Dr. Jean Narcisse Djaha, that offers a transformative blueprint for harnessing artificial intelligence (AI) to serve humanity—not just for efficiency or profit, but for public value, dignity, and lasting social impact, AI Without Borders Network, a collaborative project, is committed to building a future of AI Without Borders, where local wisdoms guide each code we write, where local realities inspire local innovations, where technology uplifts humanity and bridges divides, where AI becomes a force for good in our humanity, where AI technology uplifts communities, amplifies marginalized voices, and drives meaningful change in the Global South and Africa in particular.
Djaha & Company Global CEO & Global Managing Partner Dr. Jean Narcisse Djaha said, “We live in a time where AI development and vision divergence accelerate. If we do not act, who will do it for us. The AI Without Borders Network is a global initiative rooted in the belief that artificial intelligence must serve all humanity—especially communities historically underrepresented in technological development. We are proud to be the journey.”
