In Africa, according to the International Telecommunication Union, the opportunity for new media developments is mainly on the mobile platform. Mobile phones now outnumber landlines 5-to-1, and 9-to-1 in subsahara Africa. With many of these phones outfitted with cameras and videorecording, this will of course impact the representation of African Cities. Will mobile phone-based citizen journalism play an important part in the way cities, their inhabitants and their stories are represented in the mediascape? The interesting Voices-of-Africa-project thinks it just might, and has started an initiative – working together with Dutch mobile reporting platform Skoeps.nl - in which reporters use their mobile phone to report in cities (and the countryside) in Mozambique, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa.
