The Free2Expres Augmented Reality Project will take place in Harare, Zimbabwe from 01 – 05 April 2025.
Photography and poetry have long been tools of freedom, enabling many to find a voice, discover their identity, and exercise freedom of speech. Magamba Network invites photographers and poets to address the theme of Freedom of Expression by creatively visualising and voicing the right to express thoughts and opinions freely through photography and poetry. Ten participants are invited to participate in a training and mentorship process that will test their creative boundaries and challenge their understanding of Freedom of Expression as a human right.

· Poets should submit a work-in-progress recorded poem of up to 2 minutes.
· Photographers and poets should submit brief descriptions of between 300 – 500 words each about the photography series and the poetry project in Word documents. The descriptions should outline project concepts and why the two projects are significant.
