*New Fellowships Will Help Rewire Africa’s Governments*

Do you want to help us build African governments and societies that are
more accountable and responsive to citizens?

We are looking for the best ideas for harnessing the power of digital
technologies and open data, to improve the way that governments and
citizens interact.

Code For Africa <https://www.facebook.com/CodeForAfrica> and the Open
Knowledge Foundation Network <https://www.facebook.com/OKFNetwork> are
jointly funding three pilot fellowships, which will give material and
technology support to innovators who want to kickstart projects that will
help open up their governments.

The fellowships include a monthly stipend, seed grants for project work,
sponsorships to attend both local and international events, workspace in
civic tech labs, and technology support from our code teams.

The deadline for applications is *December 15*. The fellowships start in
February 2015. Get all the details here: http://bit.ly/CfAopengov
