Echoes of Africa launched on 15 July 2001 - a new monthly online magazine with stories, images and educational fun from all over Africa. The debut issue went out to nearly 2000 subscribers, and is now online.

Echoes of Africa was put together by a team of Ugandan volunteer trainees...
most of them didn't know ANYTHING about the Internet just a few short months
ago, and now they have created wonderful content, designed beautiful pages,
and are learning how to promote it.

Subscriptions are FREE! And for African subscribers or others who would
rather not go online to read the stories, the monthly magazine will include
special email links through which the full text of any featured story will
be sent by text only email. SUBSCRIBE online or with a blank email to:
[email protected]

Of interest to African website owners:

- Life in Africa is seeking contributions of stories and images to be
published in future issues, with the objective of promoting good African
content on the web. Already published content is welcome, and will be
accompanied with a link back, thereby generating increased traffic to the
content owner. For more info, please see

- Each issue of Echoes will feature reviews of other Africa-focused
websites, who are winners of the Life in Africa Award for Cultural
Excellence. Sites with in-depth, unique cultural content from or about
Africa, should see http://lifeinafrica.com/links/ACE.htm and apply for this
award.
