Connect Africa is an innovative ICT (Information Communication Technology) initiative that combines entrepreneurship and social enterprise to bring communication, business and public services to rural communities across Africa.
Using a network of public phones working in tandem with a fleet of service vehicles that routinely visit installations in deep rural communities, Connect Africa will provide an infrastructure and logistics network to facilitate the delivery of multiple services to deep rural communities across Africa.
It is proposed that the Zambian service network will serve as a model for an African rural service network covering 10 countries by 2015.
