What is Truemyvoice?
This initiative recognizes the power of poetry as a means of advocacy, storytelling, and collaboration. Its primary goal is to empower poets and storytellers alike in Africa, equipping them with the necessary skills and resources to effectively advocate for social change, justice and cultural issues, share compelling stories, and foster collaborations within and beyond their communities.
By focusing on capacity building, the initiative aims to enhance the abilities of African poets to effectively use their art form as a tool for advocacy. This involves providing training, workshops, and educational opportunities to help poets develop their skills in crafting persuasive messages, addressing relevant social issues, and engaging with diverse audiences.
