Provided by bird story agency, Africa's narrative-change news agency.
Here at bird story agency, we want to reflect on the fullness of what is going on across the continent. This week, we have an abundance of stories on wine, of all things – from South Africa’s bumper wine year to how a coconut palm wine entrepreneur is boosting local livelihoods.
Do you need a picture that is a reflection of yourself as an African, or of a professional African in an urban, African environment – whether for news, commercial purposes, or a personal project? We’re building a service that can help you. Please subscribe to our newsletter and we’ll keep you updated – on the latest narrative-changing stories about Africa and on the progress of our new picture service. Thanks!
bird story agency is a specialist news agency designed to shift the narrative on and in, Africa.
Our content, which is provided free to news organisations, digital platforms, and publishers, supports the media ecosystem by offering personalised features and data-driven stories written by African journalists all over the continent (over 130 journalists, from 43 countries and counting).
Pictures, videos, and other media resources on our site can also be used for free, on signature of our MOU.
We’re on the lookout for content creators and journalists who are passionate about telling stories that shift stereotypical narratives about Africa. We are also engaging with digital publishers who would like to publish (free to African platforms) bird content.
