The Official Launch of the AfroMedia Platform took place at the EACA22 conference on the 31 of August 2022. This is an opportunity for African media research to connect.
Farooq A. Kperogi is delighted to announce the publication of the edited book titled /Digital Dissidence and Social Media Censorship in Africa, /which features cutting-edge scholarship on online resistance and government censorship of social media in Africa from a variety of distinguished scholars from across the continent.
Africa has a media research tradition which goes several decades back, but there is a lack of collaboration between researchers across the continent. A new platform can aid the situation and will also make African media researchers more visible for the rest of the world.
