This report uses the 2024 High-Level Policy Dialogue as a point of departure for providing an overview and snapshots of the digital transformation of African higher education in an AI era. It introduces the notion of digital transformation of African higher education in an age of AI by establishing what is understood as digital transformation in the context of this report, providing a selection of African country case studies focusing on initiatives to operationalise AI in the context of broader initiatives in service of digital transformation, before analysing some of the trends and gaps and formulating some tentative policy recommendations, combined with desktop research to provide snapshots on the digital transformation and integration of AI in higher education in 15 representative countries on the African continent.  This report will be useful for educational and educational technology researchers, educators, public and private educational institutions, NGOs, policy makers, and regulatory bodies.
