Francis Mureithi

I am the co-founder of the Africa Solutions Media Hub. This is a Non-Profit media organisation using Solutions Journalism to amplify positive impact stories of changemakers in Africa. This organisation tells stories of individuals, organisations and communities offering scalable solutions to the challenges facing the region today. We also offer Solutions Journalism and Impact Storytelling training to young people; turning them into ambassadors of positive stories from their own communities.

I am a seasoned journalist with over 16 years of experience in the media landscape. I have over the years worked in various spheres of journalism including Court, Parliament and News Editor at Radio Africa Group and Star Publications Limited, a multimedia company based in Nairobi. I am currently the digital editor at Radio Africa Group where I also lead a desk that develops special content on social impact stories.

I have a bachelor’s degree in Languages & Literary Studies from Moi University and a Master degree in International Conflict Management from the University of Nairobi, both in Kenya. Currently I am finalizing a Master of Arts degree in Digital Journalism at the Aga Khan University Graduate School of Media & Communications.
