African Union and Google recently announced the launching of the #DiscoverMyAfrica Shorts Challenge, the aim is to celebrate the rich diversity, heritage, and vibrant spirit of the African continent. Throughout the month of May, YouTube creators across Africa are invited to share short videos capturing their unique perspectives, using the hashtag #DiscoverMyAfrica.
The Partnership will foster creative expression and dialogue on content responsibility, digital preservation, and AI’s impact on Africa’s creative industries. This aligns with the vision for a digitally enabled Africa harnessing cultural wealth for economic growth and social progress.
