governancepolicy-gapethicsenforcement

Togo’s Ministry of Justice and Human Rights held a forum in Lomé for representatives from ministries, public institutions, and civil society under the theme “Artificial Intelligence and Democratic Governance.” The forum aimed at establishing a clear framework for the use of AI in government and supporting the development of a broader national AI strategy.

Who it affects: Government agencies, public institutions, and civil society actors involved in AI policymaking and implementation.

What is notably missing: No civil servant training requirement or standard defined; no enforcement mechanisms outlined; no specification of how governance framework will be operationalized.
