Summary

African Media, African Children is the title of the tenth Yearbook of the International Clearinghouse on Children, Youth and Media. The book is a compilation of essays which reflect a wide-range of issues and concerns related to children’s media culture in Africa. For example, several address the role of entertainment television in Addis Abba, Ghana, South Africa, Kenya, and Zambia and in the lives of Muslim children. Other essays introduce people to children-centered media from Ghana, South Africa, and Zimbabwe, and the innovative programmes of PLAN-International. In addition to entertainment media and children-centered media, media education and digital media literacy are also discussed.
