About Us

We ensure victims of insecurity and conflicts get the attention they deserve from policymakers, the media, and the government.

Africa’s humanitarian crisis has led to deaths, displacement, food insecurity, shortages in healthcare delivery and many other interconnected challenges. Beyond the statistics, individual lives have been changed forever, in more ways than most people are aware. The HumAngle Newsroom has spent many years dedicated to the documentation and amplification of these challenges and helping people and institutions understand it.

The HumAngle Foundation exists to take this work further, sitting at the intersection of the media and civic society to ensure impact from those stories, humanitarian support and empowerment for victims, and capacity building for the media and civic society.

How We Work

We are focused on reclaiming narratives around conflict and harnessing innovation for addressing the issues we face. To do this, we have chosen to be independent, values-driven, inclusive, dedicated to strengthening our skills and contextually relevant.

We engage with and serve all community members, including women, youth, elderly people, people with disabilities, and members of ethnic and religious minorities. We are committed to centering the voices of the most vulnerable groups, protecting their dignity and safeguarding their rights.

Before we act, we consider the current situation and existing activities by the landscape of actors, and we carefully identify areas where we can add value. To achieve our goals, we acknowledge that we do not have all the answers and that our vision is so big that we need to work collaboratively with various stakeholders.

A Note from the CEO

At HumAngle, our mission is clear: to spotlight security and humanitarian crises shaping lives across Africa. Through fearless, data-driven journalism, we expose the human cost of conflict, displacement, and systemic neglect—shedding light on stories that often remain in the shadows.

Our work is rooted in accuracy, independence, and deep investigative reporting. But we recognize that journalism alone is not enough. That’s why we established the HumAngle Foundation, an independent non-profit committed to advocacy, capacity-building, and humanitarian action. While our newsroom investigates and informs, the Foundation transforms insights into impact—engaging policymakers, supporting vulnerable communities, and pushing for systemic change.

Though united in purpose, these entities operate independently. HumAngle Media Limited remains a for-profit newsroom, upholding editorial integrity through ethical commercial revenue and grants. Meanwhile, the HumAngle Foundation mobilizes resources for advocacy-driven initiatives, ensuring that critical reporting translates into real-time solutions.

To strengthen governance and accountability, our Board of Trustees and Advisory Board play an independent and crucial role—keeping our team members in the respective organisations and shared services in check while reinforcing our commitment to transparency and ethical standards.

Together, these twin forces—rigorous journalism and strategic advocacy—do more than document history. They drive change, ensuring that truth leads to action and justice is within reach.
