Digital Council Africa

Digital Council Africa Working towards a connected South Africa for all.

Digital Council Africa funders have one thing in common:
We believe that digital transformation is about putting people first. We’re focusing on helping stakeholders navigate and participate in disruptive environments; and meeting their needs using emerging technologies, data and changes to society, culture, practices and processes. The Digital Council aims to act as a bridge and connector betwee

n the government, our members, the technology industry, and stakeholders across Africa. We believe that the development and deployment of digital access will enhance the quality of life for citizens in South Africa and Africa as a whole, providing African countries with a digital footprint which will increase their effectiveness and competitiveness within the global marketplace. The council’s charter is to educate African governments, policy makers and political leaders on technology and data issues facing the continent. Further, we seek to develop methods as to how digital connectivity and services can be delivered to citizens within the coming years. Through consultation with all major stakeholders and understanding their strategies and concerns, we endeavour to be the voice of the industry and to help create a better
future for all involved. On matters such as:
- Social and digital inclusion
- Leveraging tech to empower business
- Enhancing tech sector employment
- Privacy and trust
