AllAfrica Global Media is a voice of, by and about Africa, preserving a voice for Africa in the international marketplace of news and ideas – at a time when that voice is needed more than ever. We provide AllAfrica, All the Time.
Reporting the news, aggregating it, making it available to you and supporting participating publishers across Africa – it all costs money. No news organization can cover Africa without charging fees or collecting subsidies. If you do your part, we can do our job.
AllAfrica's news and information archive is a large and growing collection containing over seven million articles and documents from allAfrica.com, the leading online Africa information resource. AllAfrica collects and aggregates selected articles from African news organizations, as well as documents and releases from several hundred governmental, nongovernmental and international institutions. Our news team produces original reporting, in-depth features and guest columns.
The full archive, which dates from 1996, is available only on this site. Current news stories – up to two years old – remain free and accessible without subscription. Subscribers gain access the complete collection, while helping to preserve free access to current news for those for whom payment would be an impossible burden.
