About
Our mission is to bridge the digital divide in Malawi by providing innovative and sustainable solutions that address connectivity, access to devices and digital literacy for the 85% of Malawians who remain unconnected.
To achieve this we commit to:
- Establish affordable and reliable community wireless networks in underserved rural and urban areas.
- Extend internet services to schools, health centres and community hubs to ensure widespread access.
- Partner with organisations and donors to provide affordable or donated devices to schools, individuals and community groups.
- Promote the reuse and recycling of technology to ensure accessibility for all.
- Develop and deliver training programs aimed at improving digital skills for marginalised communities, particularly the youth and women.
- Collaborate with stakeholders to create culturally relevant and accessible educational content.
Connecting you
Our approach to providing connectivity gives ownership to schools and communities, tangible skills and opportunities to the youth and affordable internet access to people living in the most challenging environments.
Stakeholders are given ownership of the internet. Village heads, school managements and development committees are engaged to discuss and guide the best approach to implement the project in line with cultural practices and community values.
Our skilled technicians are seconded from local technical colleges giving opportunities and aspirations for the youth. They are fully trained to professionally install the infrastructure which will provide internet connectivity to schools and communities.
Stakeholders assist in selecting suitable candidates to be facilitators for the community based digital committee. Successful candidates undergo a training of trainers' program administered by Community Wireless Networks.
Affordable access to the internet allowing adults and children to learn how to use a computer in an inclusive and friendly digital environment. Enabling online digital e-learning and improving their social-economic life through access to the internet.
