Programa de Formación Juvenil en IA y Robótica — Proyecto Piloto de la UIT, Google y will.i.am en Costa de Marfil

Coste indicativo

Medio (50 000–500 000 €) — Google.org committed USD 1 million in funding and technical expertise across the entire five-country pilot (Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa); no Côte d'Ivoire-specific budget breakdown has been published.

Tiempo hasta resultados

Corto (< 1 año) — Programme launched September 2025 as a one-year pilot; Côte d'Ivoire's teacher training-of-trainers workshop took place in March 2026.

Personal y competencias

International Telecommunication Union (ITU) (programme lead), Google.org (funding — USD 1 million committed — and technical expertise), will.i.am's I Am Angel Foundation (partner), Technology Innovation Hub of IIT Delhi (technical support), UNICEF Giga school-connectivity initiative (delivery channel)

Condiciones para el éxito

• Train-the-trainer model, starting with a teacher training-of-trainers workshop before student-facing activity
• Integration with an existing school-connectivity initiative (UNICEF Giga) rather than building new delivery infrastructure from scratch
• Multi-partner funding and technical model (ITU, Google.org, I Am Angel Foundation, IIT Delhi) spreading risk and expertise across organisations
• Linkage to a global competition structure (Robotics for Good Youth Challenge) providing a concrete showcase goal for trained students

Modos de fallo comunes

• As a newly launched pilot, there is no independent learning-outcome data yet
• Reach figures (20,000 students, 1,000 teachers) are cross-country targets stated at launch, not verified enrolment or completion numbers
• Côte d'Ivoire-specific participation has not been separately published beyond confirmation that the training-of-trainers workshop took place
