Value proposition
Stories and actions advancing hope on the continent.
Africa Renewal is a United Nations digital magazine that covers Africa’s economic, social and political developments. We cover the challenges the continent faces and the solutions to these by Africans themselves, including with the support of the United Nations and international community.
Through the Africa Renewal digital magazine and social media platforms, webinars with youth groups, media relations, and other outreach and partnership efforts, we present a new narrative about Africa that showcases positive action and hope, while countering mostly negative stereotypical portrayals of Africa.
We promote Africa’s achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals, the Paris climate change agreement and Africa’s Agenda 2063. The topics we cover include sustainable development, climate action, agriculture, youth voices, women’s empowerment, health, the African Continental Free Trade Area and other regional integration efforts, technology and innovation, peace and security, economic development and more.
We produce our own content, commission content from freelancers based in different African countries, and curate content from the UN system and the African Union, working closely with Office of the Special Adviser on Africa (OSAA), the UN Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), and the African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD).
Media are invited to republish Africa Renewal articles free of charge, and to give us credit, using the following language: This story was originally published by Africa Renewal.

As a new school year begins in Afghanistan, another 400,000 girls are being denied their right to education. More than 2.2 million children have missed out on school since the ban on girls' secondary schooling was put in place three years ago.
“The consequences for these girls - and for Afghanistan - are catastrophic,” warns UNICEF chief Catherine Russell.
“We will continue to advocate for the right of every Afghan girl to receive an education, and we urge the de facto authorities to lift this ban immediately.”
📢Final Call for Paper
April 1 is the last chance to submit papers on the impact of military expenditure on the achievement of the #SDGs.
Use the opportunity to shape the Secretary-General's analysis and be part of this important discussion.
