Community-owned internet service providers consistently deliver affordable, sustainable connectivity in areas commercial operators won't serve — but face three structural barriers: spectrum access, technical capacity, and startup capital. The Community ISP Accelerator removes all three.

Structure: (1) Spectrum commons — reserve 50MHz of licensed spectrum in each country specifically for community networks, issued at near-zero cost with co-use obligations; (2) Technical assistance network — 500 regional "connectivity coaches" providing hands-on support for community network design, deployment, and maintenance, funded by a common pool; (3) Community network revolving loan fund — $500M facility providing $50,000–500,000 startup loans at 2% interest, repaid from network revenue, revolving to support next cohort.

Target: 10,000 community networks serving 50M people in 5 years, providing connectivity at $3-8/month (80% below commercial rates in comparable areas). The model is proven: Rhizomatica (Mexico), Zenzeleni Networks (South Africa), and BOSCO Uganda all demonstrate community ISPs can operate sustainably. The accelerator removes the barriers preventing replication at scale.
