Slum TV

Slum TV is a grassroots media organisation based in Mathare, a large Nairobi slum where 500,000 people live.

Slum TV produces audiovisual material ranging from documentaries shot by local reporters to dramas and comedies produced by groups of young actors. The aim is to provide the communities of Kibera and Mathare with a means of documenting and transmitting what is happening in their neighbourhood, initially aimed at a local audience, but which can be extended to an international audience.

To further professionalise their training offer, Slum TV is at the origin of the ASMO (Alliance of Slum Media Organisations) network, which brings together audiovisual organisations from the slums. Thanks to this network, Slum TV, along with 5 other slum media organisations, has been able to set up a training course in film technology, in collaboration with a Kenyan university (KCAU), TVETA, PEN and Africalia.

The photo book Grassroots upgraded: reflections on Nairobi Eastlandsfrom the [Africalia Editions photo]The exhibition, entitled "Nairobi, the city, the city", features around a hundred photographs of Nairobi taken with LOMO cameras.

Programme 2017-2021: Africalia's contribution covers the costs of management staff as well as expenses relating to their core activities such as training and film screenings.
