AFRICAN STORY CHALLENGE MULTIMEDIA GRANTS!!! The African Story Challenge is a two-year pan-African project that seeks to challenge the media to expand coverage of fundamental issues that matter to Africans. The goal is to contribute to the building of a strong media sector able to deliver content that matters to the African public. The initiative is looking for compelling, analytical, investigative and data-driven stories that will help spur better policies and healthier lives, increase transparency, hold officials accountable and disseminate vital information that will lead to more vibrant communities. It encourages entries that will use creative digital tools like mapping, crowd sourcing and visualisation to help tell the story. The Story Challenge is a project by the African Media Initiative (AMI), the continent’s largest association of media owners and operators, in partnership with the International Center for Journalists (ICFJ). This competition targets African journalists from around the continent. To apply, simply fill out the online entry form and attach to it a proposal of no more than 500 words.
