NEWF is a permanent platform and community in Africa for filmmakers, conservationists and scientists to engage, network and contribute through storytelling towards a shared vision of protecting the earths’ natural assets for future generations. What started out as an annual Congress in 2017 has grown to become an all year round capacity building, impact and outreach organisation building a connected network of African’s advocating for the protection of our continents natural habitats and wildlife through visual storytelling.
Our Vision is that the Stories of Africa that celebrate and advocate for the protection of her natural history are told by a connected network of visual storytellers lead by indigenous African voices.
Our Mission is to remove the barriers to entry and build capacity in order to enable access, support inclusion and create a culture of equity for African nature, environment and wildlife visual storytellers.
