As part of the #AfricaEducatesHer campaign, the AU/CIEFFA made a call for creative content that saw young people, human rights defenders, and educators across Africa submitting videos, blog articles, music, and poetry focused on COVID-19 related school closures and the initiatives they are taking to ensure girls go back to school once schools re-open. Following the submission of several kinds of music, videos, and poems, the AU/CIEFFA is organizing a virtual #AfricaEducatesHer Pop-Up Concert to showcase the creative contents received and the talents of young African people standing up for girls' and women's education on the continent. This concert will leverage the participation of education activists and artists from each of the 5 regions of Africa to spotlight the challenges girls face in this period of the pandemic.
We will also take this opportunity to reveal our five #AfricaEducatesHer Youth Ambassadors who are championing the campaign in the different regions of Africa.
- The concert will be streamed on the AU/CIEFFA YouTube channel and Facebook page
- Performers include Afrie (Uganda), PG13 (South Africa), Taafrika (Kenya & Tanzania), and Ife Musiq (Nigeria)
- The event will start at 11:00 am - 12:30 pm (GMT).
