South Africa's Inclusive Six-Dimensional Generative Ai Readiness Framework, Keegan Steyn, Ojelanki Ngwenyama, Sibongiseni Tunzelana Aug 2026

South Africa's Inclusive Six-Dimensional Generative Ai Readiness Framework, Keegan Steyn, Ojelanki Ngwenyama, Sibongiseni Tunzelana

African Conference on Information Systems and Technology

Generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) is transforming governance, knowledge systems, and economic activity, but current preparedness measures pay little attention to the socio-technical, institutional, and postcolonial contexts that shape country trajectories. To address this gap, the study employs a design science methodology to create the National Generative AI Readiness Assessment Framework (N-GAIRF), a six-dimensional diagnostic tool theoretically based on Sen's capability approach to development and incorporating Institutional Theory, Socio-Technical Systems Theory, National Innovation Systems Theory, and Postcolonial Information Systems critique. An example application to South Africa, compared to Zimbabwe and an indicative Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) reference …


How Prior Exposure To Cyber Threats Shape Cyber Hygiene Practices Among Mobile Internet Users In Accra, Jefferson Sigfred Seyeram Bansa, Date Barrigah-Benissan, Martin Yaw Osei Mintah Aug 2026

How Prior Exposure To Cyber Threats Shape Cyber Hygiene Practices Among Mobile Internet Users In Accra, Jefferson Sigfred Seyeram Bansa, Date Barrigah-Benissan, Martin Yaw Osei Mintah

African Conference on Information Systems and Technology

Mobile internet usage in Ghana has revolutionized communication, financial activities, and commercial operations, as Accra residents increasingly rely on mobile devices as their primary digital tool. Users face multiple cyber threats, including phishing, malware, and identity theft, as their online activity outpaces their cybersecurity knowledge. This study employs a qualitative case study design to examine how mobile internet users in Accra experience and respond to cyber threats. It draws on Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) and Technology Threat Avoidance Theory (TTAT) to explain how users’ threat perceptions, coping strategies, and contextual conditions shape their online safety behaviour. Data will be collected …


Ubuntu Signs: A Tool For Real-Time Translation Of South African Sign Language, Simone Beets, Hasita Rama Aug 2026

Ubuntu Signs: A Tool For Real-Time Translation Of South African Sign Language, Simone Beets, Hasita Rama

African Conference on Information Systems and Technology

Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (DHH) individuals often face communication challenges with people who do not understand sign language. Existing systems lack support for South African Sign Language (SASL) and are limited in accessibility, efficiency and accuracy. This paper introduces Ubuntu Signs, a mobile prototype tool for real-time SASL translation using a camera-based interface and machine learning. The tool uses two models to recognize gestures: a static model for alphabetical and numerical gestures and a dynamic model for continuous gestures representing words and phrases. A preliminary user study evaluated the effectiveness, efficiency, accuracy and satisfaction of Ubuntu Signs. Results indicated high usability …


Robbed With Permission: Toward A Receiver-Consent Architecture For Trust-Preserving Mobile Money Transactions In Africa, Raphael Amponsah Aug 2026

Robbed With Permission: Toward A Receiver-Consent Architecture For Trust-Preserving Mobile Money Transactions In Africa, Raphael Amponsah

African Conference on Information Systems and Technology

Mobile money transacted more than USD 2 trillion globally in 2025 across 2.3 billion registered accounts, with Sub-Saharan Africa holding over half of all accounts and two-thirds of transaction value. Between 58 and 72 percent of mobile money fraud on the continent exploits trust rather than technology, yet current security architecture authenticates the sender and merely notifies the receiver, leaving the transaction execution moment structurally unguarded. This paper introduces the Receiver-Consent Transaction Protocol (RCTP), a USSD-native protocol requiring the receiver's active PIN consent on their physical SIM before any credit completes, grounded in Design Science Research with Routine Activity Theory …


Genai Goes To Campus: A Narrative Literature Review Of Benefits, Challenges And Policies, Jayson Warren Peters, Mmasechaba J. Seopa, Justin T. Maistry, Tebogo J. Matome, Christen Du Toit, Maureen C. Tanner Aug 2026

Genai Goes To Campus: A Narrative Literature Review Of Benefits, Challenges And Policies, Jayson Warren Peters, Mmasechaba J. Seopa, Justin T. Maistry, Tebogo J. Matome, Christen Du Toit, Maureen C. Tanner

African Conference on Information Systems and Technology

This study examines the role of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in the learning and administrative experiences of students and educators in higher education, through a narrative literature review of thirty-one articles. The literature was thematically reviewed and coded to identify themes and factors contributing to challenges, benefits, and policies and guidelines. These themes were explored in depth with their relation to GenAI for learning outcomes, the role of GenAI in student’s learning experiences and the effectiveness of using GenAI tools to support educators’ administrative processes. In light of the challenges and deterrents identified (e.g. implementation - maintenance, privacy and security, …
