The Kuyu Project

The Kuyu Project is a digital literacy initiative aimed at teaching African youth how to fully utilize social media and other digital tools to effect social change in their communities to achieve their goals and objectives. We strongly encourage African youth to construct resonant narratives of their collective experience in the vein of old African storytelling practices. We greatly hope digital African youth storytellers will recreate and re-imagine Africa by deviating from existing story lines and succeed in establishing a new powerful vision of change across the continent. We deeply believe that by offering an open platform and teaching digital techniques we are fueling the dreams and aspirations of these young minds which might one day lead to the innovations and technologically driven solutions that will change Africa and the world.
