Twenty Ten Project calls for applications

The Twenty Ten Project

The Twenty Ten project is for professional journalists of African nationality who are currently living in Africa. It is a multidisciplinary media project, which aims to encourage media professionals to creatively produce and distribute articles, images, broadcasts and multimedia productions related to African football.

The Twenty Ten “Dream Team”

The Twenty Ten “All Stars” are 108 journalists from different journalistic disciplines (radio, photo, print) and together they represent 35 different African countries. Currently enrolled in the Twenty Ten training programme, these journalists will complete the programme at the end of 2009, and several will be selected to join the Twenty Ten “Dream Team,” which will travel to South Africa from June to July 2010.
