Kenya's Raila Academy has launched a new initiative to train public officers in artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. The Kenya School of Government (KSG) will lead the program, which aims to enhance leadership and governance across the country and the continent.

The Academy will provide specialized training to current and future public officials, focusing on emerging technologies and digital security. The initiative is part of a broader effort to modernize public administration and improve governance standards.

This marks the first major expansion of the Raila Academy, which was established to strengthen leadership development in Kenya. The new program reflects growing concerns about the need for digital literacy and cybersecurity expertise in public service. The training will be delivered through a combination of workshops, online modules, and practical exercises.
