A group of young volunteers from southern Germany, many of whom have lived in Africa [1], are calling for photos, essays, videos, blog posts or poems [2] by locals of five major African cities: Lagos, Addis Ababa, Gaborone, Kigali and Kinshasa.
With a forthcoming exhibition called “Sichtwechsel,” their goal is to show another face of Africa than what typically appears in German media — modern, urban, rapidly developing societies.
See their website at Missing-Images.com [3] in English, French and German. The deadline for submissions is March 31, 2014.
