# FOREWORD
The world stands on the precipice of a profound technological revolution. Artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly emerged as a general-purpose technology with the unprecedented potential to reshape economies, redefine public service delivery, and transform human well-being. For the Republic of Ghana, the advent of AI represents more than a mere technological shift; it is a critical launchpad to accelerate our national, economic, and sustainable development objectives.
The Republic of Ghana National Artificial Intelligence Strategy: 2025-2035 is our comprehensive roadmap to harnessing this transformative power. Building upon the strong foundations of the Ghana Integrated Digital Transformation Blueprint, the Ghana Digital Economy Policy and Strategy, and the ICT for Accelerated Development (ICT4AD) policy, this strategy sets forth a bold ambition. Our vision is clear: Ghana 2035: The AI-Powered Society. By 2035, we envision a transformed society where AI advances the potential of our people, government, businesses, and systems to achieve inclusive social and economic transformation. We are committed to equipping Ghanaians with the capabilities and enabling environment necessary to compete in the global digital economy, firmly positioning Ghana as a trailblazer for AI leadership in Africa and beyond.
We recognise that while the majority of AI development is currently concentrated in advanced economies, its potential to address our unique local challenges is vast. Strategic adoption of advanced digital technologies can drive productivity in key sectors of our economy. From deploying predictive models to increase crop yields in agriculture, to utilising natural language processing for cultural preservation, and leveraging automated diagnostics to bridge structural inequalities in healthcare, AI can catalyse our progress towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). By establishing a National AI Fund and cultivating a vibrant local ecosystem, we project that AI will contribute 500 billion Ghanaian cedis to our GDP by 2035.
