ARE YOU A PHOTOGRAPHER OR A VIDEOGRAPHER?
What’s your COVID-19 story? We’re looking for photo and video submissions that showcase African resilience in the wake of the pandemic.
A global pandemic dramatically reshaped the world, our continent, and all our lives. But amid the disruption, we’ve also seen hope. Innovators rising to respond to the challenges. Communities stepping up to practice the precautions required. Each of us doing what we can, and what we must, to keep going. Safely.
The African Art in Context Call for Submissions seeks to tell those stories. Too often in crises, the narrative surrounding Africa is dominated by inordinate fear and negativity. This is our chance to shape a narrative that showcases to the world what we see every day: the resilience, ingenuity, and beauty of a continent that is navigating COVID-19 with courage, commitment, and compassion.
