Togo AI Lab has launched a
new digital education programme aimed at introducing children to digital tools
and the fundamentals of artificial intelligence from an early age.
The “Mon Enfant & le
Numérique” programme officially began on Saturday, August 8, 2026, with the
first of a series of educational sessions designed to help young participants
develop an understanding of digital technologies in an age-appropriate
environment.
The programme will run over
four consecutive Saturdays, with participants being guided through basic
digital tools and introductory concepts in artificial intelligence.
According to Togo AI Lab,
the initiative is intended to strengthen children's awareness of digital issues
while helping prepare a new generation of technology users and potential
innovators.
The programme forms part of
the organisation’s broader efforts to promote digital literacy and encourage
early engagement with emerging technologies in Togo.
By introducing children to
technology and AI concepts at an early stage, the initiative seeks to build
foundational knowledge that can support their future participation in the
country’s growing digital economy.
The next session of the
programme is scheduled for Saturday, August 22, 2026, as participants continue
their exploration of digital technologies and artificial intelligence.
