About NetOne Foundation

The NetOne Foundation, as the implementing partner for Intervention 2 of the Smart Africa Markets for All (SAMA) Programme in Zambia, is spearheading a transformative four-year initiative under the Smart Africa Alliance, in partnership with the Mastercard Foundation.

SAMA seeks to expand access to inclusive digital markets, entrepreneurship opportunities, and dignified employment by strengthening digital skills, promoting financial inclusion, and enhancing market access for economically disadvantaged youth.
