Harambee Africa International recently announed the 6th International Prize, “Communicating Africa,” a competition open to filmmakers and students.
The prize aims to create a more accurate image of Africa, one that reflects the existing conflicts but also shows the reasons for hope; the richness and diversity of its peoples and cultures, the unwavering commitment to development, and at the same time the needs, which are still so sizable. In short, to promote awareness of a continent that is a treasure for the whole world.
Harambee means “All Together” in Swahili and summarizes the meaning of this organization: all together to accompany a continent that has much to teach the world.
In past editions, the award winners have been professionals such as Lena Slachmuiklder, Michelle Makori, Mayte Pascual, Stefano Belardini and Serena Laudisa who all submitted audiovisual works broadcast on major television networks in Belgium, Italy, Spain, United States, Ireland, South Africa and other countries.
The Prize has been given out 5 times in its history, starting in 2004, and then later in 2006, 2008, 2010 and 2013.
For this year’s Prize, there are two categories: Televised report or documentary, broadcast on television or on Internet-based news channels and for students under 25 years old a video-clip
The prize for best documentary/televised report, released between 1 January 2014 and 30 June 2015: 5.000€ to the winner, and a total of 1.500€ in prizes will be awarded for video clips produced by students under 25 years old.
