Description

South Africa is hosting Africa Communications Week 2023 from 22 to 26 May 2023. This communications festival will be hosted under the theme: “Borderless Africa”.

Africa Communications Week is observed annually during Africa Month, and it is a global campaign targeting and open to all communications professionals with African interests. The aim is to benchmark and have a look at the impact communications is making in shaping the current narratives on Africa. We also look at accelerating communications through innovation and effective media platforms.

In the weeklong discussions, we will receive presentations from Google journalists Initiative Studio, Facebook platforms, TikTok, Media Monitoring Africa, the Public Relations Institute of Southern Africa, and Research Insights by the CSIR and GCIS on Africa Communications

The various themes to be discussed will highlight the acceleration of Africa Communications through new mediums and innovation and will provide opportunities to examine how the communication profession can position itself and demonstrate its relevance as a fundamental management discipline that contributes significantly to Africa’s socio-economic rise.
