Description
This grant opportunity, issued by the U.S. Mission to Algeria, seeks to strengthen U.S.-Algerian cooperation in artificial intelligence (AI) through the Freedom250 initiative. The program aims to deliver practical, hands-on AI training to at least 150 participants—including university students, educators, entrepreneurs, and community leaders—across five American Spaces in Algeria (Algiers, Bechar, Constantine, Oran, and Ouargla). The curriculum will cover U.S.-aligned AI tools, standards, governance frameworks, and practical application development, with a strong emphasis on sustainability by training local facilitators and creating a community of practice. The initiative is intended to embed American AI methodologies in Algeria’s technology ecosystem, foster ethical and democratic technology development, and build long-term bilateral partnerships.
