The @PAPCoalition initiative reinforces the value of consuming content legally, highlighting how subscriptions to trusted platforms contribute to local investment, job creation, skills development & the continued growth of African storytelling and sport. https://t.co/KsPM9HB95T
Behind every match, series, film, or song are thousands of African creatives whose livelihoods depend on a thriving industry. With an estimated 70% to 80% of creatives operating in the informal sector as freelancers or gig workers, economic precarity hits this community incredibly hard.
Every time you choose a legal platform, you aren't just watching a show - you are actively investing in local jobs, skills development, and the future of African storytelling.
As we celebrate Africa Day, let's protect the stories and moments that connect us and support local.

Creative industries rely on systems that support participation, opportunity and fairness. Protecting intellectual property helps ensure creativity can be valued and sustained in the digital economy.

Today is International Anti-Corruption Day.
Piracy is not harmless — it funds organised crime, corruption, and tax evasion.
African countries lose billions each year to illicit trade, slowing growth & job creation. Protect our economy & choose legal content.

Education is under threat. The publishers’ association reports a spike in students illegally downloading textbooks — and this is hurting both learning and access to up-to-date materials.
If you rely on pirated books, think: wrong editions = wrong information. Choose legal access. Support learners, support knowledge.
