AfriBridge Connect has been named the sole African finalist in the prestigious Geneva Challenge 2025, a global competition recognizing innovative youth-led solutions to pressing development challenges. Designed by a multicultural team from Ghana, Côte d’Ivoire, and Cameroon, AfriBridge Connect represents Africa’s digital vision for inclusive migration governance and cross-border opportunity.
Built as a bilingual (English–French), mobile-first platform, AfriBridge Connect enables skilled African youth to verify credentials, overcome language barriers, and access employment opportunities across borders. The platform combines AI-powered translation, blockchain-secured credential recognition, and voice-accessible onboarding, ensuring that even low-literate or visually impaired migrants can participate fully in Africa’s labor market.
Speaking on the recognition, Project Lead Abigail Osei Owusu noted:
“This isn’t just a tech innovation it’s a bridge between talent and opportunity. Being the only African team among the finalists validates the importance of building solutions that reflect Africa’s realities.”
