GIDA Journal is an annual print publication, prioritising works by creatives, writers and thinkers based and living in Africa. In each volume we focus on a different region, working closely with creatives from various fields, whose practices we believe in and are committed to platforming. We are dedicated to promoting and protecting the diversity of cultural practices and expressions in Africa, particularly through focusing on heritage and craftsmanship.
Each publication acts as an archival monument, capturing a moment in time in African creativity across mediums and exploring broad themes from architecture and fashion, to sustainability and the visual arts. GIDA Journal is a timeless anthology where emerging and established African creatives, writers and thinkers can co-exist in a space that prioritises freedom of cultural expression and diversity of perspectives.
