Africa No Filter (ANF) is a non-profit organization that works to challenge and change harmful narratives about Africa by amplifying authentic and diverse stories from the continent. The organization aims to shift perceptions and create a more balanced and nuanced understanding of Africa, countering stereotypes and misconceptions that often prevail in media and popular culture.
By supporting and promoting African voices, creativity, and innovation, Africa No Filter seeks to reshape the narrative surrounding the continent and showcase its vibrant cultures, achievements, and potential. The organization engages in various initiatives, including media campaigns, storytelling projects, research, and collaborations with artists, creators, and organizations across Africa.[1][2]
ANF was established in May 2020 through a collaborative effort of donor organizations including the Ford Foundation, Bloomberg, Mellon Foundation, Luminate, Open Society Foundations, Comic Relief, the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, and the Hewlett Foundation.[3]
