AllAfrica Foundation
Project Title
As a final grant to elevate African peacebuilding expertise in the media
Date
Sep. 12, 2024
Duration
24 months
Description
African scholars produce in-depth research on peace and security issues that rarely appears in formats accessible to policymakers and the interested public. At the same time, journalists often lack access to specialist expertise to inform their reporting on these issues. To address these disconnects, AllAfrica, a leading online source of news across Africa, began working with African peacebuilding scholars in 2018 to produce multimedia content for and with its network of more than 100 news and policy-oriented organizations. With renewed Corporation support, AllAfrica will continue to produce this content, conduct briefings between media leaders and peace researchers, facilitate policy dialogues, and disseminate peacebuilding analyses. In addition to publishing original content and providing consistent coverage of underreported developments, the project will continue to fosterconnections among scholars, practitioners, and policymakers.
