dc.descriptionThis speech welcomes attendees to a roundtable discussion on Artificial Intelligence (AI), e-governance, and access to information, convened by Nigeria's National Committee on the Information for All Programme (IFAP) in collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy. It highlights the unprecedented speed of AI development and the global challenge of implementing AI, e-governance, and access to information for sustainable national development. The roundtable aims to brainstorm benefits and risks, harness opportunities for empowered citizens, and promote inclusive approaches for information access and open data. The speech outlines IFAP's role in promoting access to information, supporting training, fostering local content, and encouraging international standards and networking. It notes that while Nigeria excels in these areas, a unified approach at UNESCO conferences is needed. The IFAP committee, with the National Librarian/CEO as Chairperson, includes various national stakeholders and has contributed to achievements like facilitating the Freedom of Information Bill. The speech emphasizes that successful international partnerships depend on understanding Nigeria's position in AI and information access, asserting that the roundtable will yield a working document for policy development and implementation, contributing Nigeria's voice to global discussions.
