A new digital youth television station has Monday been launched in Uganda.
Owned by Faraja Africa Foundation, Digital TV will be available online and on various social media platforms like Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and on satellite cable.
Faraja Digital TV will give a platform that will air out youths’ voices in every aspect of life they experience in the community.
“It is such a platform as we Faraja Africa Foundation have created to arise and air out youth voices in East Africa” Emmanuel Wabwire the founder of Faraja Africa Foundation said.
“One of its major missions is to promote a social entrepreneurial culture among youth development initiatives by targeting not only a young audience but also that of key decision-makers and development practitioners,” he added.
“Therefore, Faraja Television seeks to create a platform for youth to inform, inspire, and empower each other through relevant, trustworthy, and regional-class quality television programs and services. Television is an open platform for all young people regardless in East Africa and not limited.”
Founded in 2013 and registered in 2016, Faraja Africa Foundation is a Non-Governmental Organisation based in Kampala, Uganda.
It focuses on social entrepreneurship, leadership training, and civic engagement with the use of technology and digital tools.
Its studios are located at Queen Chambers, Parliamentary Avenue, Kampala.
