Poloko holds a Bachelor of Social Science in International Relations and Public Policy from the
University of Cape Town. Deeply passionate about community development and empowerment
across Africa, he firmly believes in the potential of Africans to drive transformative change within
their nations.
Prior to joining CorpsAfrica, he gained valuable experience in refugee resettlement as a Caseworker
with CWS Africa, where he managed cases for adjudication by U.S. immigration officers, facilitating
the safe resettlement of refugees in the United States.
He also worked at the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development, where he served as a
Project Coordinator in the Modernisation and Digitisation unit. In this role, he was part of a team
that coordinated innovative IT solutions to enhance and transform the department’s service
delivery.
He is excited to collaborate with communities and young Africans to develop high-impact,
sustainable projects that promote lasting change. He is inspired by the community development
approach embraced by CorpsAfrica and looks forward to working closely with locals to foster
growth, development, and transformation.
Driven by a desire to make the world a better place, Poloko is eager to join forces with others who
share his vision of creating positive impacts in the lives of communities across the continent.
