What a way to close the Indaba! Day 6 was a powerful final day of learning and celebration. It featured a final round of half-day workshops, a keynote by Dino Machuve (@DMachuve ) on End-to-End Deep Learning for Chicken Diseases Diagnosis, and the inspiring Maathai Impact Award Ceremony. The day culminated in the closing remarks and an awards ceremony to celebrate the incredible community built over the last week. #DLI2025 #Indaba2025 #Urunana

Welcome to #DLI2025! We’re thrilled to be part of @DeepIndaba 2025 — Africa’s largest gathering of minds shaping the future of Artificial Intelligence. With over 1,000 professionals, researchers, students, startups, and policymakers coming together in Kigali, the energy here is unmatched. For us, this isn’t just another conference. It’s about being part of a movement that empowers Africans to move from consuming AI to creating it, shaping it, and leading global innovation with it. At the University of Rwanda, we’ll be joining voices and efforts to tackle Africa’s unique challenges and transform them into opportunities. Our team is here to learn, share, and contribute to building an ecosystem where Africa isn’t just in the conversation on AI, but at the center of it.
