Our Mission

Unlocking critical data for social impact in Africa

d-Node opens access to critical data in regions with high needs.

By funding local social projects that collect data on topics like soil pollutants, rural education, or demographic statistics, you help build a more transparent and informed world.

We use open-source technology to ensure that this data is accessible to everyone - enabling communities, researchers, journalists and decision-makers to take action.

Our Approach

Maximum impact in your sector

Our approach delivers maximum impact in the sector of your choice, powered by three transformative pillars.

Strategic funding with immediate results

Your social investment directly fuels high-potential local projects, accelerating their growth and amplifying their impact.

Enhanced visibility of local challenges

The data collected through the activity you funded doesn’t just inform - it empowers. It gives a voice to key stakeholders and bridges critical information gaps in the sector.

A ripple effect beyond funding

Your social contribution keeps working long after the initial investment.

Collected data becomes a shared resource, driving future local initiatives and multiplying the long-term impact as we organize hackathons and data challenges on the topic.

What are public goods?
In economics, a "public good" refers to anything that is both non-excludable and non-rivalrous, that is, people can't be barred access, and one person's use doesn't degrade another's.

‍Clean air is an example of a naturally occurring public good, while the electric grid is a public good created by people.

‍What are the public goods of today's industrial-knowledge society?
‍Open source code, which supports millions of companies and independent developers, is often thought of this way. Open data is also a public good. That's why at d-Node, we focus on the most pressing challenge in underserved area: collecting crucial data to impact communities.

A great public good should:

Be values-based
In service of a set of values your community cares about
‍Have longevity
Be achievable and maintainable
Create positive externalities
Benefits a public beyond an immediate set of users
How do I track my impact?
