Welcome to the AfTerFibre google group.

Our goal is to build a publicly accessible, openly licensed, easy-to-use, visually appealing map of terrestrial fibre optic cable projects in Africa. Please only share maps and information here that you are comfortable sharing with the world at large. If you have any questions, feel free to post them to the list or you can email me directly if you prefer at (stevesong@nsrc.org).

Thanks for joining us!
