Connecting Africa’s youth to verified opportunities worldwide.
The Jobs & Skills Exchange is DCG’s gateway to employment and mentorship. It links African youth with diaspora professionals, verified employers, and training providers. Beyond matching talent with jobs, it builds capacity by equipping participants with future-ready digital and professional skills.
Why It Matters
- Africa’s youth face high unemployment despite possessing valuable skills.
- Diaspora professionals are eager to mentor but lack structured platforms.
- Employers abroad often struggle to access African talent directly.
This exchange closes the gap, creating pathways for trust-based hiring and mentorship.
How It Works
- Youth register their profiles and skills.
- Diaspora mentors and global employers list opportunities.
- The matching system pairs talent with jobs, training, or mentors.
- Progress is tracked through the DiaspoPlug App, with escrow-secured contracts where relevant.
