As Internet access continues to grow in Africa, with over 450 million people now connected to the Internet, more than 60 percent of the population still remains offline. Community Networks provide a sustainable solution to address the connectivity gaps that exist in underserved urban, remote, and rural areas around the world.
When it comes to connecting communities, we need everyone on board.
