Unlocking Africa's Digital Future
Who We Are
Digital Foundation Africa was established in 2019 as a not-for-profit organization by a team of digital mavericks that generates knowledge, imparts skills, strengthens technical capabilities, and promotes dialogues around the effective use of ICTs as vehicles for development — with a vision of creating social impact and unlocking Africa’s digital future.
Headquartered in Accra, Ghana, we envision building every African to be digitally-enabled through skills development, policy dialogue, and education that promote citizen participation.
