Gambian teachers, tech experts, and education officials met at the Sir Dawda Kairaba Conference Center to learn about AI classroom uses. Africa Mission Global organized the event with the Basic and Secondary Education Ministry to help teachers grasp AI basics for their lessons. Mrs. Adepeju Dara from AMG said they wanted to address misconceptions and discuss ethics around AI teaching tools. The April 5 gathering reflected growing interest in making education more efficient through artificial intelligence. Facilitators included Dr. Fola Ojuola and Dr. Sesan Akinnawo, with logistical support from Mrs. Olukemi Akinnawo.

Public Service Minister Baboucarr Bouy represented the Vice President and praised the initiative as important for transforming education. He emphasized that modern teachers need tech knowledge beyond traditional teaching tools. During the sessions, participants learned AI fundamentals and practical classroom applications relevant to local schools. Teachers discussed concerns about machine dependence and ethical questions about using AI with young students. The day ended with both organizations promising to continue their partnership and offer more training across the country.
