About WAMECA

The West Africa Media Excellence Conference and Awards (WAMECA) is an initiative by the Media Foundation for West Africa to promote media excellence in the sub-region.

The conference brings together experts in various media, governance, and democracy-related fields for discussion on media development and good governance challenges across the African continent.

The Awards, on the other hand, are to reward and inspire journalism excellence in West Africa as well as honour West African journalists who have produced compelling works which have had significant impact on society.
