“Africa Creates is Africell’s invitation to the world to discover the voices, creativity, culture and stories of our operating markets,” explains Chirine Labaki, Africell’s Content Manager and the director of the documentary series.

“Africa Creates tells stories of places that each have their own identity, energy, landscapes, traditions, and people, but which are unified by a common spirit of fun, curiosity and collaboration.

“Through Africa Creates, we celebrate the people, places, talent, and stories that make each of these countries unique and bring them to a wider world.”
