Maisha Yetu: Media Campaign for Our Lives
|
Launched in 2002 with a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the IWMF’s Maisha Yetu (“Our Lives” in Swahili) project helps African media improve their coverage of HIV/AIDS, TB and malaria.
The Maisha Yetu project empowers health journalists and expands the roles they play in their media houses. The result is an increase in the quality and quantity of stories produced by those journalists. The Maisha Yetu project was conducted in media houses in Botswana, Kenya and Senegal.
