Young journalists, real stories

Listen closely. Report honestly.
Who we are
Journalism with community at its heart.
Ushirika means togetherness. Our journalism club is a place for aspiring reporters, storytellers, photographers and media makers to learn from one another and create work rooted in the lives of the people around them.
Through practical training, mentorship and collaborative reporting, we help members build strong foundations in ethical journalism and grow a portfolio they can be proud of.
