Welcome to AfricaMedia.co.uk

This website incorporates media addressing the entity we call 'Africa'. While it is primarily a space where people living and working in Africa can write about the issues affecting them, it also hopes to promote independent news sources drawn from around the continent. Further, it aims to depict what it is like to be in Africa to those who are not, by using photographic and audio media.

To survive, AfricaMedia must inform, challenge and grow. We want people to post any opinions they hold on issues surrounding this continent. If you have suitable photographic or audio material I can upload it.  The foundation of this site is information.

There are many myths and generalizations surrounding 'Africa', and while we cannot give 'the' accurate representation, it is something to try and provide a more nuanced and variegated picture. This can only come from multiple narratives.  So, please, feel inclined to enter the forum and help make this a lively site!
