The community of Mankosi, outside Ngqeleni in the Eastern Cape, has successfully developed South Africa’s first community-owned internet service provider.

The project, Zenzeleni Community Networks, provides communication networks to rural villagers.

Far off the beaten track, poor connections often leave villagers off the network for days on end. But through technology, the internet is now always available. The establishment of the Zenzeleni Community Network brought about a huge change in the outlook of the people in the area. A new world has opened for learners and job seekers. Individuals, non-governmental organisations and local schools also use the network.“The network helped me to apply online in university with other group of students. We were from high school then and it still helping us because we are able now to look for internships online while we are here.

“The network is assisting me as a freelancer because I don’t have to go to town to apply for jobs. I search for jobs online and do freelance online. I use the network before freelancing to apply for job opportunities for people in the community to apply for tertiary institutions,” Dlutu explains.
