When people search “Africa”… what do they see?
Wildlife. Poverty. Outdated narratives.

But Africa is more than that, and images shape perception.
That’s why you need to contribute to help shape this narrative.

Africa deserves to be seen fully.

Still can't get over the event we had few weeks ago.

Delving into historical knowledge and public domain was an insightful one.

We are grateful to everyone that made this event possible.

More than an event—it was a movement!

The Public Domain is revolutionizing education across  Africa! 💫

By providing free and unrestricted access to a wealth of books, research, art, and educational resources, it empowers students, educators, and lifelong learners.

[Free Knowledge Africa @FreeKnowAfrica]

Knowledge should be free, accessible, and open to everyone!

This week is all about embracing the power of open access — breaking down barriers so that research, data, and educational resources are available for everyone.

Happy International Open Access Week!
