Jangala

Jangala is a technology charity dedicated to providing essential internet access globally, with the goal of connecting 4 million people to the internet by 2030. Founded in 2015 as a volunteer initiative providing Wi-Fi to people in the Calais Jungle refugee camp, Jangala offers a unique approach through its novel connectivity solutions, and takes great pride in its strong partnerships with international aid actors, grassroots organisations and public bodies. We are driven by a vision of equalising technology for everyone, and are fully committed to addressing the realities of digital exclusion and the fragilities of internet connectivity, both in the UK and around the world. As a non-political, non-governmental registered charity, we focus on bridging the digital divide and enhancing connectivity resilience. Since our founding nine years ago, we’ve made a significant impact through innovative technology and robust partnerships. Big Box, our rugged connectivity champion, serves critical and challenging deployments, from response teams in an emergency zone to a remote educational hub. Get Box, developed rapidly during the COVID-19 pandemic, ensures that households and individuals are able to stay connected to the internet, no matter their circumstances. We are proud to be Cisco Global Problem Solver Challenge Winner; Clifford Chance SDG Award Winner 2022; Connecting the Unconnected Winner 2022; and World Food Programme Humanitarian Innovator Accelerator Finalists 2023.
