Angola
Country Context
Currently, there are around 56,000 forcibly displaced persons in Angola spread over provinces such as Luanda and Lunda Norte. These refugees represent a multitude of countries such as the DRC, Rwanda, Mauritania and others.
Country Statistics
Connectivity & Access
Angola has strong connectivity infrastructure, with 3G and 4G networks covering more than 75% percent of the population, and 5G available in select areas.
However, refugees continue to face disproportionate barriers to accessing connectivity and fully participating online including residing in remote areas where network coverage remains limited.
Our Work
Our work focuses on expanding connectivity access and digital inclusion programs to meet the needs of forcibly displaced and host communities while also advancing sustainable solutions, all informed by timely, refugee-specific data.

Connectivity in Lovua Camp
CfR supported the provision of connectivity across Lovua camp, addressing the immediate connectivity needs of refugees in the region due to limited network coverage.
Connected Community Centres
CfR supported the establishment of two connected community centres in Luanda and Lovua camp. Managed by local partners, these centres promote learning and digital skills development with the potential to reach up to 50,000 people.
