REIMAGINING AFRICAN NARRATIVES | PHOTOGRAPHY FELLOWSHIP

Are you a photographer or visual artist seeking deeper narratives and new strategies for your lens-based practice? Do you need editorial support and idea development for an ongoing project? Are you ready to expand your visual stories through publications, exhibitions, and multimedia formats?

Reimagining African Narratives is a 6-month photography fellowship fostering responsible collaboration from an African perspective. Through online and in-person workshops, participants receive expert mentorship to advance long-term projects,  challenge traditional documentary formats, and engage a global audience through hands-on editing and publishing sessions. 

In a world fragmented by inequality, this mentorship emphasizes ethical engagement with communities, the environment's crucial role, and the importance of diverse perspectives and knowledge sharing.

This fellowship seeks applicants whose work intersects themes relating to the natural world, social impact and social justice through community-centred narratives about nature, conservation challenges, environmental impact and climate resilience.

The program focuses on responsibility, challenging stereotypes, and creating impactful publications.

Only Applications that are submitted through the proposal submission form on our website will be considered. Please do not email your application.
