Tunga
Tunga connects African software developers directly to paid international software tasks. Unlike traditional freelancer marketplaces, Tunga is built as a social network. On the one hand, companies can create a following of developers and on the other hand developers can become friends and work collaboratively. We allow companies to have instant access to the coding skills they need to the extent, and at the moment that they actually need them. Tunga’s ambition is to create a structural and substantial amount of fees for talented youths from Africa in a fair and transparent way. Tunga is an initiative of the Butterfly Works Foundation and supported by among others Mobbr, DOEN Foundation, Dioraphte, Edukans, Triodos Bank and Trust Law.
