Acacia Initiative

Helping Africans harness the transformative potential of ICTs

 
Acacia works with African partners to help countries in Africa apply information and communication technologies (ICTs) to social and economic development. Acacia is an integrated program of research and demonstration projects that focuses on appropriate applications and technologies, infrastructure, policy, and governance.
 
Acacia’s mission is to support research on ICTs that improve livelihood opportunities, enhance social service delivery, and empower citizens while building the capacity of African researchers and research networks.
 

Researchers from Southern organizations interested in applying for funding should follow this link for specific guidelines.

This site operates primarily in English and French.
