We would like students to help us with creating content that is aligned with our vision, mission, and sector. Most of the content will be come from our recent Afri Future Tech Summit.
The Afri Future Tech Summit is a unique platform that brings together Canadian and African tech ecosystems for mutual benefit. This year our event drew 178 attendees and advanced important discussions in the Canada-Africa tech space.
We're an organization that is focused on bringing together diverse stakeholders for equitable exchange; we’re building shared value between Canadian and African stakeholders to achieve a more just and sustainable future.
If you're passionate about exploring the exciting and impactful opportunities between Africa and Canada, then this is for you!
Deliverables will include:
- A 6 month content calendar for social media
- A 6 month content calendar for newsletter
- A 6 month content calendar for our website (blog)
- 2-3 social media posts/week
- Monthly newsletter
- Monthly guest blog contributions
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

To accomplish this, we expect the student(s) will:
- Research – desktop research on key topics including innovation and fintech
- Sort and package - sort through our virtual library of video content from the summit and package appropriately for our various digital platforms.
