AFCAP Community of Practice

 

This website is designed around one of AFCAP outputs, the Community of Practice the (CoP). The CoP is an informal network of professional, policy makers and interested individuals who share a common interest, knowledge and experience in the provision of community access. This informal network will enhance communication between the members and will facilitate dialogue around key issues. Download our Community of Practice Strategy here

The aim of the CoP is to connect Practitioners, policy-makers, researchers and interested individuals around the issue of Community Access in rural Africa. The objectives of the CoP is to share experiences amongst those interested in community access, enhancing the professional ethic, raising the profile of community access as a key sector in national economies, and promoting enquiry and research in this area. Research into policy, particularly in the adaption of national standards and practices is a key component of AFCAP and will continue to increase in importance.
