Africa

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Join this group if you are installing, maintaining, or otherwise involved with at least 1 Drupal installation used by Africans within Africa. We want to keep our discussions locally relevant.

If you are from South Africa, please join the South Africa group at http://groups.drupal.org/south-africa.

For all the rest, feel free to join this group until there's enough community (say 10 members) in your region--enough to split off.

Meanwhile, welcome! We (www.suuch.com) are based in Accra, Ghana!

    Hey'all, any Drupal website reference inside Africa?

    Hey'all! When talking to Drupal references, we all heard of The White House, The Economist, MTV and such big occidental company.
    I was wondering if you know some African references made with Drupal? So we could tell the world African folks are making funny stuff too :)
    The biggest African reference I aware of, is the African Union.

    Do you know some more??

    Drupal groups em Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde?

    Hello all,

    I'm trying to get in touch with Drupal communities in Angola, Mozambique or Cape Verde.

    As some of you know, there will be a 3rd DrupalCon sometime next year out of Europe / North America.. This one will be held in Brasil, and it would be an excellent opportunity for the Drupal communities in the Portuguese-speaking countries to meet, and to bring some of the exisiting experience in Brazil and Portugal to our African friends so that the Drupal community in these countries can thrive.
