Masaar presents a civil society-led proposal for AI regulation in Egypt, emphasizing principles like transparency, accountability, human oversight, and protection of fundamental rights. The report suggests a comprehensive legal framework tailored to Egypt’s legal and technological context, including provisions on algorithmic bias, open data standards, and public sector deployment.

The proposal also advocates for an independent oversight body to supervise AI compliance and ensure democratic control over high-risk technologies. The initiative reflects increasing regional efforts to align with global trends in ethical AI governance while considering Egypt’s unique social and legal structure.
