"An Extra Mile": How Science Africa helped bring solutions journalism to Kenya and the East African region
After almost three years of active training for journalists and lecturers in newsrooms and universities, the first-of-a-kind Solutions Journalism Africa Initiative led by Science Africa, along with Nigeria Health Watch in West Africa, came to a close in June 2023. This video showcases some of the most salient insights and impacts from across Kenya and the East African region.
The Africa Initiative spans East and West Africa, providing formal training and learning resources to 60 newsrooms. Starting with Kenya, Nigeria, Rwanda and Uganda, this three-year initiative is building a network of solutions journalism-focused fellows, trainers and media entrepreneurs across the continent.
Through our partners Nigeria Health Watch and Science Africa, we work with newsrooms at the community and national levels to support reporting that prioritizes the multilingual, multicultural and multimedia needs of diverse African audiences.
