Unpublished Africa White Papers

Distributed Cultural Infrastructure in Practice documenting how Unpublished Africa Photo Week

Over the past 2 years, we have been a testing a different way of building cultural infrastructure.

We've now released our latest white paper on Distributed Cultural Infrastructure in Practice documenting how Unpublished Africa Photo Week expanded from in-person activations in 3 cities to 15 cities across 9 African countries.

More of our White Papers:

"I'd Be Empowered If... " - Unlocking True Empowerment for Africa Women in Photography

This white paper, created alongside the "I'd Be Empowered If" exhibition examines the complexities of empowerment. As stated in the abstract, structural barriers impede access to resources, hindering progress. We explore how photography, as seen in this exhibition, can be a powerful tool for change, redefining narratives and promoting equity.
