What We’re Looking For

</aside>

For International Women’s Day in March, Tech Safari is looking to commission four (4) paid articles centred around tech and African women, preferably written by women.

While we will consider pitches on features of African women in tech, we’d especially like to read pitches about how tech on the continent impacts women. We’ll accept deep dives on women's access to credit, but we’d be interested in reading a piece on how Kenya’s biggest Instagrammers/TikTokers make money.

We're your smart-ass friend who's also the smartest person in the room. Our tone is conversational, easy to digest, but in depth and unique. We don't just regurgitate the same takes you'll read on every African tech website.

While each finished piece will be around 800-1,000 words, pitches should be 150-300 words long.
