AfroCom Initiative

About this app

AfroCom is an Afro-centric digital community and opportunity network platform connecting people, communities and opportunities across the globe.

More than another social network, AfroCom brings people, communities, businesses, projects, events, jobs, opportunities and ideas into one connected ecosystem.

Whether you're looking to connect with people, discover what's happening around you, showcase what you're building, find opportunities, grow a business, join a community or stay connected to the wider Afro-community - AfroCom gives you a place to do it.

*DISCOVER*
Find relevant content and opportunities through a structured, location-aware feed.
Discover:
• Content and community posts
• Classifieds
• Businesses and services
• Jobs
• Events
• Projects
• Campaigns
• Opportunities across your network and the wider Afro-community
Use filters and location relevance to find what matters to you.

*EXPLORE*
Take discovery beyond the feed.
Explore AfroCom through an interactive map to find content, people, businesses, projects, events and opportunities around you and across the global Afro-community.

*SHARE*
Your identity is more than one profile.
Create your personal profile and add dedicated pages for different parts of what you do, including:
• CVs and professional profiles
• Businesses
• Projects
• Organizations
• Campaigns
• Communities
• Services and offerings
Share personal updates, mood-based posts, community content and content connected to the pages you create.

*SEARCH*
Looking for something specific?
Search across AfroCom to find people, content, businesses, communities, projects and opportunities.
AfroCom is being developed toward increasingly intelligent, intent-based discovery so you can spend less time searching and more time finding what is relevant.

*CONNECT*
Turn discovery into real connection.
Connect with individuals and groups through:
• Private and group chats
• Audio calls
• Video calls
• File sharing
AfroCom is designed with privacy, secure communication and meaningful community connection in mind.

*MORE THAN A SOCIAL FEED*
AfroCom is built around a different idea of what a digital community platform can be.
Instead of designing primarily for endless scrolling and attention, we're building for relevance, connection and action.
Find the right information.
Find the right people.
Find the right opportunities.
Then do something with them.

*BUILT WITH THE COMMUNITY*
AfroCom is being developed progressively through community feedback, participation and co-creation.
Our long-term vision is to build deeper capabilities around intelligent discovery, collaboration, community development and economic activity while keeping people and communities at the centre.

Discover. Explore. Share. Search. Connect.
