WASHINGTON, D.C. – SaNDAI Cares Inc., the not-for-profit arm of SaNDAI Global (SaNDAI), a leading data and business intelligence company, is excited to announce its partnership with the Foundation for a Healthier Senegal (FOHSEN) to upskill FOHSEN staff in critical areas such as data literacy, AI ethics, responsible use of AI, AI fundamentals, and generative AI applications. This partnership is part of SaNDAI’s AI Literacy Leaders Program: Africa, designed to empower and educate key stakeholders across the continent.
The program will run for 52 weeks and will equip participants with certificates in data and AI-related fields, validating their expertise and preparing them to leverage emerging technologies. This initiative reflects SaNDAI’s mission to promote data-driven decision-making and foster innovation within underrepresented and marginalized communities. SaNDAI annually dedicates thousands of hours to analytics training, supporting growth, innovation, and new knowledge across the globe.
“AI Literacy Leaders Program: Africa aims to empower over 900 youth, young adults, educators, and community leaders across Africa with essential digital, data, and AI literacy skills,” said Jeremy Williams Sr., Chief Executive Officer of SaNDAI. “These skills are crucial, especially for African rural students, as they open doors to new opportunities, enable community transformation, and contribute significantly to the continent’s prosperity and sustainability.”
Through this partnership, FOHSEN will enhance its capabilities in three critical areas: maternal and child health, expanding health infrastructure, and increasing the use of telemedicine. “The skills we will acquire through our collaboration with SaNDAI will revolutionize how we manage and interpret data, ultimately improving our ability to deliver essential services in Senegal,” said Talla Cisse, Executive Director of FOHSEN. FOHSEN is committed to improving health outcomes for rural and underserved women across Senegal by increasing access to reproductive, maternal, and child health services through community-driven initiatives.
“Our work with SaNDAI and other partners, including the Ministry of Health and Senegalese communities, focuses on addressing persistent health and equity gaps,” added Richard Szeto, Finance Manager at FOHSEN. “This partnership is vital as we strive to expand access to quality nutrition, family planning services, and overall health infrastructure, making a meaningful impact on the lives of those we serve.”
The collaboration between SaNDAI and FOHSEN marks a significant step toward empowering communities in Senegal and beyond. It showcases the transformative power of data literacy and AI education in driving social change and improving health outcomes.
