ANF Storify Africa Fellowship 2025 for Young and Emerging Storytellers.

Storify Africa is a narrative change and storytelling initiative housed within ANF. They partner with organisations that want to communicate and amplify the issues they care about on the continent through stories that center the voices and perspectives of those they serve.

The Storify Africa Fellowship trains, supports and builds the capacity of young and emerging African storytellers to tell those stories. In doing so, Fellows help organisations shift entrenched stereotypes, and highlight their impact in a way that avoids reinforcing damaging narratives about Africa.
