S2 E2: Women in Focus
from Credo Voices Hosted by Credo Advisory
In this episode of Credo Voices, we explore the journey of Amina Mohamed, a Vital Voices Visionary and passionate advocate for ethical storytelling and media representation. As the founder of Cameras for Girls, Amina is equipping young women across Africa with photography, business development, and storytelling skills, ensuring they have the tools to enter and thrive in the media industry. Her work challenges the "colonial lens" often imposed on African narratives, emphasizing informed consent, ethical representation, and shifting away from stories of poverty and despair. Through hands-on training, mentorship, and a strong focus on cultural sensitivity, Amina’s program creates pathways for women to tell their stories, secure employment, and lead change in their communities. Her efforts are advancing #SDG4: Quality Education, #SDG5: Gender Equality, and #SDG8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, fostering a new generation of female storytellers who shape narratives with dignity and authenticity. Join us to hear Amina’s inspiring journey, the impact of Cameras for Girls, and why ethical storytelling is crucial in reshaping global perspectives.
