About SourceHer!

In a world where knowledge shapes narratives, there exists a significant gap in the diversity of voices heard. The 2018 UNESCO report "Women Make News" unveiled a stark reality—only 20% of expert voices in the media belonged to women. This revelation ignited a spark that birthed SourceHer!

SourceHer is not just an online directory; it's a testament to the resilience and brilliance of African women across the globe. Fueled by the urgency to bridge the gender gap in media representation, we embarked on a mission to redefine the narrative. Our story begins with a commitment to amplify the voices of African women experts who have long been overlooked. In a landscape dominated by a mere fraction of female perspectives, we set out to change the narrative by creating a space that empowers, connects, and elevates.

Inspired by the conviction that diversity fosters richer, more nuanced discussions, SourceHer stands as a beacon of opportunity for journalists, researchers, and editors. Our platform is more than a directory; it's a dynamic bridge connecting the wealth of knowledge possessed by African women experts to those who seek it. Picture this: a journalist needing an expert source to lend depth and insight to their story. Enter SourceHer, where a curated selection of accomplished women across various industries awaits. It's a seamless connection, a meeting of minds that not only enriches the narrative but also propels the voices of African women to the forefront of news content and reports. At SourceHer, we understand the power of representation. Our commitment goes beyond numbers; it's about creating a lasting impact on the media landscape. By providing a platform for African women experts, we contribute to dismantling the barriers that have hindered their visibility for far too long.
