Strengthening Partnerships to Advance AI Literacy and Close Africa's Digital Gap
In a move to bridge the digital divide and empower the next generation of African innovators, Thrive and Shine LBG is proud to announce a partnership with the AI Literacy Initiative (ALI), a leading organization committed to advancing AI literacy across Africa.
In a significant milestone, Ibrahim Misto, Chief Digital Officer, today signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Yvonne Boakye-Manu (Dumor), Co-Founder of Thrive and Shine LBG, marking the beginning of a transformative partnership aimed at bridging the digital divide and advancing Artificial Intelligence (AI) literacy across Ghana and beyond.
This partnership goes far beyond sponsorship. It represents a shared commitment to equipping young people with the skills, exposure, and support they need to thrive in a rapidly evolving digital world.
Through this collaboration, beneficiaries will gain access to:
- Mentorship programs led by industry professionals
- Internship opportunities to gain real-world experience
- Scholarships to support STEM and technology-focused education
- Hands-on AI projects, enabling youth to apply their knowledge to solve real community and industry challenges
By combining Thrive and Shine LBG's youth-centered mission with strong digital leadership, this initiative will help nurture a new generation of tech-enabled problem solvers who are prepared to drive innovation and sustainable development across Africa.
As Thrive and Shine LBG continues to fuel Africa's future in STEM, partnerships like this reaffirm our commitment to not only inspiring young minds but also providing practical pathways for them to learn, build, and lead in the age of AI.
Together, we are not just closing the digital gap — we are creating opportunities for African youth to shape the future.
