Maisha Foundation Limited

Maisha Foundation Limited is a non-profit training initiative based in New York, NY, that aims to empower emerging East African filmmakers. For over sixteen years, they have provided hands-on intensives in various aspects of filmmaking, including screenwriting, directing, producing, cinematography, editing, sound recording, and acting. With a focus on promoting a film culture for young people, Maisha offers programs such as documentary labs, screenwriting labs, and a youth film program. They have recently revamped their website, which now features a film database showcasing the work of their alumni and mentors.

During their two-year hiatus, Maisha plans to reassess their journey and envision a new direction that will continue to support the growth of film professionals on the African continent. Through their training programs and initiatives, Maisha strives to ensure that East African filmmakers have the necessary skills and resources to tell their own stories and contribute to the vibrant world of cinema.
