Funding Opportunities at Digital Transport for Africa (DT4A)

Digital Transport for Africa is part of Urban Mobility in our WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities.DigitalTransport4Africa (DT4A) represents a large, diverse network of city governments, residents, universities, civic technology companies and collectives as well as international development partners committed to building digital commons and applying the Principles for Digital Development to the goals of sustainable urban mobility and access.

DT4A aims to create a movement for open transit data across the African region by strengthening capacities to work with and leverage standardized data; providing expertise and tools to adapt current transport, land use, and planning data (e.g., GTFS format) to the African context ; gathering evidence and presenting cases of how data can help improve planning and implementation of sustainable mobility, particularly in the paratransit/informal transport sector; and cultivating innovations to encourage and promote uptake and use of open transit data.
