Imagine a world where females have equal rights and opportunities as their male counterparts in the photography industry.
Last year, we organized an intensive survey around the percentage of female to male in the photography industry in Africa. The result wasn't really encouraging at all (slide to checkout the results of our research).

Due to the disproportionate number of photographers in Africa, which are considerably men, we are set to train and empower 500 young females in photography (in 2020) through our initiative.
Photography shouldn’t still be considered a man’s world in this age and time, hence this 2020, one of our key focus is on empowering the female gender. We will be bridging the gender gap in the photography industry thereby addressing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 5 and 10, which are gender equality and reduced inequality respectively.
To implement , PhotoWaka Africa will organise intensive photography workshops for female beneficiaries across various locations. Furthermore, with support and partnership from organisations, we will provide donated cameras to these female beneficiaries, organise exhibitions, where these female beneficiaries can express their thoughts and creativity to the world, even as we launch them into the marketplace to create positive impacts in their various communities.
