What is AUCTF 2.0?
AUCTF 2.0 is a 12-month program to spread cutting-edge municipal technology solutions throughout Africa. It acknowledges that effective citizen participation in governance settings is greatly facilitated by technology. AUCTF seeks to empower Africa’s youth to determine the future of the continent by addressing issues of governance and development via the use of data and digital technology.
Why Civic Tech Matters
Democratic governance and social progress are predicated on civic engagement. AUCTF is looking for projects that use technology to encourage community-driven decision-making, transparency, and civic involvement. These projects promote a more equal society and boost democratic governance by enabling inclusive public participation.
Supporting Africa’s Transformation
In addition to funding, the AUCTF offers technical support to strengthen the voices of citizens. Initiatives that support Agenda 2063, Africa’s blueprint for inclusive and sustainable development, are given priority. Through endorsing initiatives that further this vision, AUCTF hopes to establish Africa as a future global superpower.
