Our mission
Udade aims to bridge the gap between African women and global AI decision-making spaces by creating access, community, and pathways to leadership across the continent and diaspora.
The Udade AI Collective is a global sisterhood of African women and women of African descent building leadership, literacy, and influence in artificial intelligence. We bring together women across the continent and diaspora, from beginners to experts, to learn, mentor, collaborate, and lead in AI with confidence. Udade is a trusted space where opportunity meets psychological safety, enabling members to grow their technical skills, explore AI governance and ethics, launch ventures, and shape the future of technology together. Together, we are building access, excellence, and collective power in AI.
We’re always looking for new members. Join today to be a part of Lean In’s global community.
Circles are small groups of women who come together—online or offline—for real talk and peer support.
We all need a safe space for real talk, inspiration, and support. Right now, we need community more than ever.
