Presentation requirements and policies on the responsible use of AI for authors participating in the RAIDS Conference in Rwanda.
RAIDS (Rwanda AI & Data Science Conference) looks forward to welcoming participants to Rwanda. To assist authors in planning their participation, the following presentation and publication policies apply to all accepted papers.
Authors must acknowledge and agree to comply with these policies during camera-ready submission.
During camera-ready submission, authors must formally acknowledge their obligation to present in person or notify RAIDS immediately if exceptional circumstances arise.
“I commit to an author presenting the paper in person at RAIDS. If exceptional circumstances arise that prevent the authors from presenting the paper in person, I will notify RAIDS immediately. I acknowledge that failure to notify RAIDS will result in the paper not being included in the proceedings.”

Authors bear full responsibility for originality, accuracy, and plagiarism checks.
All allegations of plagiarism will be investigated thoroughly. Confirmed cases may result in:
