KilimanjaroMedia is configured as a one-stop online publishing
company incorporating text, audio and video for a total creative and
entertainment experience. The primary focus is to publish fiction and
non-fiction creative works. However, we recognize that there are several
African artistes out there who would like to stream audio content in addition
to providing additional exposure to anyone interested in maximizing all
available opportunities. We are interested in audio and video content that
discusses Africa and African issues in a meaningful way. Those wishing to
stream on our site should send us an email for the guidelines. We are
specifically interested in both audio and video documentaries. Send us radio drama;
talk programs, travel audio, and travelogues. How much do we pay? Well, send a
query about your content and well talk about remuneration. All submissions
should be digital format.
