Freedom250 Advancing U.S. Artificial Intelligence Leadership in Algeria

The U.S. Department of State's Embassy Algiers announces an open competition to implement a program to advance U.S. artificial intelligence (AI) leadership in Algeria through the Freedom250 initiative. This signature program will celebrate 250 years of American innovation by delivering hands-on AI training across five American Spaces in Algiers, Bechar, Constantine, Oran, and Ouargla. The program will train at least 150 participants—including university students (ages 18-30), educators, entrepreneurs, and community leaders—in U.S.-aligned AI tools, standards, and governance frameworks. Through a modular curriculum spanning 12 months, participants will gain practical skills in AI fundamentals, system evaluation, prompt engineering, and localized application development, culminating in team-based projects addressing local challenges.
