Who we are

We support the development of nuanced and contemporary stories that shift stereotypical and harmful narratives within and about Africa.

Through research, grant-making and advocacy we aim to build the field of narrative change-makers by supporting storytellers, investing in media platforms and driving disruption campaigns.
