Company DescriptionCo-creation HUB is the leading pan-African creative and innovation ecosystem enabler. In 2010, we started out as Nigeria's premier innovation center dedicated to accelerating the application of social capital and technology for economic prosperity in Nigeria. We have since grown our physical presence to five cities (Lagos, Abuja, Kigali, Nairobi and Windhoek) across Africa and we work closely with stakeholders - including entrepreneurs, civil society organizations, government, and private sector - to identify and nurture novel solutions to social challenges in Africa.In 2017, Co-Creation HUB launched Growth Capital in partnership with Omidyar Network, Bank of Industry, and Venture Garden Group to provide early-stage funding for startups driving social change. In February 2019, Co-creation HUB opened a Design Lab in Kigali, Rwanda focused on Research and Development and Human Centered Design to enable innovation for social impact. Our Kigali Centre collaborates with global stakeholders to explore the application of technology to solve Africa's systemic problems in education, public health, education, governance and our other areas of work. In September 2019, we expanded our footprint by acquiring iHUB in Nairobi, Kenya, strengthening our commitment to supporting entrepreneurs and innovators across the continent. In 2020, we launched CcHUB Syndicate, an investment vehicle designed to improve capital access for startups and bridge the funding gap in Africa's innovation ecosystem. In 2021, we established the Creative Economy Practice to drive the growth of Africa's creative economy through innovation and technology application. In 2023, we further expanded our presence by opening Co-creation HUB in Windhoek, Namibia. These expansions have been intentional in contributing to our vision to be Africa's leading pan-African creative and innovation ecosystem enabler.Since its establishment, CcHUB has supported the development and launch of more than 10,000 innovative technology companies solving social challenges across Africa in areas including budget transparency, agtech, education, fintech, healthcare delivery, creative economy and sustainability.Job DescriptionJob PurposeThe Learning Community Coordinator will play a key role in supporting the implementation of the GATEWAY program's community learning initiatives.
