A five-part documentary series from the former German colonies

The Cameroonian port city of Douala was one of the first places where German representatives signed so-called "protectorate treaties" with local rulers. Cameroon became an important venue for the transatlantic enslavement trade. What role does the colonial past play for the African present? This is the central question of the ReMIX project, for which the producer Nadja Ofuatey-Alazard and the director Nicolas Grange traveled to former German colonies on the African continent.

AFRICAPhonie Launches Human Rights Guide for Radio Practitioners

About this Guide (Click here to download)
The United Nations Human Rights Council in its Resolution 24/15 of 8 October 2013 decided that promoting human rights training for media professionals should be the target for the third phase of the World Programme for Human Rights Education (2015 -2019). This has not been the case in Cameroon especially with community radio practitioners who cannot gain complete access to training and empowerment of human rights related issues.
The situation is made worse by an already information-poor rural community whose high rate of illiteracy prevents them from reading newspapers, which are sometimes unavailable or too expensive for the people to buy Yet, human rights awareness has in the last couple of years become a critical issue in rural communities in the North West and South West Cameroonian regions with media reports attesting to the fact that more and more people living in rural areas are trapped in court proceedings for human rights related crimes like domestic violence, gender-based violence, land theft, human trafficking, sexual harassment, arson, female genital mutilation, breast ironing etc. The victims often complain of ignorance of the law whereas no one is supposed not to know the law. Due to the radio’s ability to reach a wide audience simultaneously, it is important to use it to educate the rural communities about the relevant national and international laws, which mostly exist in Cameroon in English and French, -languages not easily understood by the grassroots.

Training community radio broadcasters on human rights awareness in Cameroon using Pidgin English

Following a Grant from the Canadian Funds for Local Initiative, AFRICAphonie organised a 3 day training workshop aimed at empowering 30 community radio broadcasters on human rights awareness programmes using Pidgin English.
The workshop took place from 10 to 12th November 2017 in Eta Palace Hotel Buea under the theme ‘training community radio broadcasters on human rights awareness in Cameroon using Pidgin English’.

25 participants arrived and lodged on Thursday 9th November 2017 by 2 pm while 5 more came late for various reasons ranging from transport difficulties to lack of information because of internet inaccessibility. 3 of the late comers joined the workshop on Friday 10th November during the afternoon session and 2 during the morning session on Saturday 11th November 2017.

The State and Future of Freedom of Artistic Expression in Cameroon

By Mwalimu George Ngwane

Freedom of Expression by Cultural Practitioners is getting more and more stifled in Cameroon.  In November 2013, more than 1000 musicians gathered in an elective Assembly within their Association called Cameroon Music Association (in French SOCAM) and voted overwhelmingly for their President, composer and musician Ndedi Eyango.  Only two weeks in office as the newly elected President, Ndedi was dismissed by the Minister of Art and Culture (supervisory authority of SOCAM) on the grounds that  Ndedi Eyango has double nationality (American/Cameroonian). It is alleged that the Minister had her preferred candidate who lost the elections.  In spite of consultations by musicians to get Ndedi Eyango back as President, the Minister has dug her heels in and there is presently a legal battle between Ndedi Eyango and the Minister.

AFRICAphonie Brings Arts and Culture Reporting to Light

By Scholar Maloke (The Star newspaper, Cameroon, March 28th 2011)

Arts and culture in Cameroon, has never been given the place it deserves.  Though some journalists endeavour to write articles about arts and culture or cover cultural events, the articles are hardly given spotlights and most at times are replaced with other news items.
 

In a bid to bring arts and culture reporting which is a very viable industry into limelight, the Director of a Pan-African non-governmental organisation known as AFRICAphonie, Mwalimu George Ngwane, with support from the Commonwealth Foundation, organised a three day workshop in Buea on Arts and Culture Journalism in Cameroon.

Nigerian Consul-General Dr. Kenneth Nsor: “Cameroon-Nigeria amity... is regulated by the values of a cherished sovereignty"

 By Jesse Konang (Published in Bakassi Peace Newsletter of November 2010)

The Federal Republic of Nigeria with an area of 923,768 square kilometres, 36 states, 774 local government councils, and 250 distinct languages is situated in West Africa. She is the most populous country in Africa and the World’s most populous Black nation with a population estimate of 140 million citizens (2006 census).  

In Nigeria’s relationship with her neighbours, Cameroon, which borders her to the east, occupies a special position, according to the Consular Guide of the Consulate-General of Nigeria in Buea.  This is especially so in view of the many years of verbal vituperation, military and legal manoeuvres over the ownership of the oil-rich land and sea reserves in the Bakassi area.  The October 2002 International Court of Justice Decision facilitated the withdrawal of Nigeria from Bakassi on 14th August, 2008, through the instrumentality of the Nigeria-Cameroon Mixed Commission and the Greentree Accord.

Bakassi Women as Weavers of Peace Through Culture

By Jesse Konang*

In commemoration of Cameroon’s regained territorial authority over the Bakassi Peninsula, AFRICAphonie, supported by Prince Claus Fund, last 14th August organized an all female cultural jamboree in Isangele. The one-day ceremony, being the first in a series of cultural activities by AFRICAphonie to reinforce peace- and confidence-building in the Peninsula, revealed the potentials of culture in women towards the enhancement of peaceful co-existence in the area.

Telefilms: Telling our Own Tales

By Mwalimu George Ngwane

The rampant closure of cinemas in most cities in Africa today may be harmful to the growth of celluloid cinema and the future of the film festival (FESPACO) in Burkina Faso.  On the other hand this may open a window of opportunity to the new wave of television films (telefilms) now becoming a permanent feature in our cultural landscape.

Africa Magic and Africa Magic Plus, the twin audio-visual channels hosted by M-Net in South Africa are fast becoming the artistic vista for African film producers interested in bringing screen art and culture to the privacy of our sitting rooms and bedrooms.
