Joke Silva Instagram – Proud to Announce the First-Ever Women in Film & TV Africa Gala and Awards.
I founded the African Chapter @wiftafrica with a clear mandate: to support the establishment of Women in Film & TV chapters across Africa. Today, alongside my sisters in vision — Oma Areh @oma.areh, Bazeli Mbo @bazelimbo, and our powerful support group — we stand as an incredible team of women united by the same dream and working diligently to make it real.
We are thrilled to join forces with:
Forum for Women in Film & TV Nigeria @fwiftnigeria led by the iconic Joke Silva @ajokesilva, Women in Film & TV Senegal @wiftsenegal led by Fatou Jupiter @fatoujupi, Women in Film & TV Ghana @wiftghana led by Juliet Ibrahim @julietibrahim, Women in Film & TV Kenya @wift_kenya led by Njoki Muhoho @njokimuhoho, Women in Film & TV South Africa @wift_southafrica led by Athi Petela @athipetela, Women in Film & TV Cameroon @wiftcameroon led by Tatapong Bayela @tatapong_bayela
Together, we will host a historic celebration themed “Afro Opulence”. This premier event will gather trailblazing creatives, institutional allies, visionary storytellers, and emerging talent from across the continent and diaspora.
The Gala is more than an event — it is a movement. It is a celebration of excellence, leadership, and impact across Africa’s screen industries. And as the inaugural edition, it sets the stage for history.
The night will continue with a Cocktail Soirée in honor of the launch of Women in Film & TV South Africa @wift_southafrica , marking yet another milestone moment.
Our Vision: To build a future where African women in film and television continue to be visible, valued, and empowered to lead — locally and globally — through access, equity, collaboration, and legacy-building.
