A continental commitment
No Parachute AI
AI in Africa rejects extractive research, shallow partnerships, and projects that treat African people only as data sources, testers, translators, annotators, or consumers.
The Pledge
- We'll include African researchers as equal partners.
- We'll respect community data ownership.
- We'll share findings and tools openly when possible.
- We won't lock African knowledge behind inaccessible paywalls.
- We'll build long-term relationships, not one-time extraction.
- We'll compensate contributors fairly.
- We'll center dignity, equity, and community benefit.
- We'll avoid extractive AI partnerships.
- We'll credit African knowledge and labor properly.
