Voices of Africa Media Foundation
As part of its training programme the Voices of Africa Media Foundation has just published the first issue of 'Voices', a magazine for mobile reporters in Africa. This new magazine, which comes with a DVD showing numerous instruction movies, aims to support young journalists to become successful mobile reporters and to later earn a sustainable living in the media sector.
Mobile reporters are journalists who produce, edit and upload content using a mobile telephone and internet.
The magazine will be distributed among participants to the Voices of Africa project that currently runs in Tanzania, Kenya, Cameroon and Ghana. It also can be made available for other organizations that cooperate with journalists in Africa. The magazine will be published 3 times a year.
The Voices of Africa Media Foundation is a unique organization that provides young Africa reporters with the necessary equipment, training and financing, so that they can build and pursue a career. It does so by promoting the development of open media in Africa.
Examples of mobile reports can be found on:
