When African journalists lead in telling Africa’s story, they become agents of change who shape how the world sees our continent and how we see ourselves.
African storytellers utilise various media to inform, educate and empower citizens; bridge knowledge gaps, and drive positive change. They facilitate information flow, public dialogue, and active participation, fostering a more democratic, inclusive, and empowered Africa. To ensure Africa is at the forefront of defining and telling its own narrative both on the continent and globally the Information and Communication Directorate (ICD) of the African Union (AU) launched the African Union Media Fellowship as a transformative platform designed to reshape how Africa is portrayed, providing a more accurate and nuanced representation of the continent’s progress, potential, and diversity.
