About BGUN Blog
The BGUN Blog is a storytelling, ideas and thought-leadership platform that gives voice to conscious and conscientious young Africans on the continent and in the diaspora.
It is designed to be accessible by everyday Africans who are looking to reconnect with their African identity, cultures, traditions and customs through modern and contemporary lens.
The Blog is about documenting our realities, challenging incorrect narratives, celebrating African brilliance, and sparking critical conversations around identity, culture, innovation, leadership, and transformation.
Our vision is to intentionally engage emerging writers, thinkers, creatives, researchers and change-makers by offering a credible space for them to publish their work, grow and be heard, while providing readers with honest, relevant, and thought-provoking content that informs, inspires, and mobilises action.
We invite readers to engage deeply read, reflect, contemplate, share and participate in the conversations and we call on writers and creators to contribute bold, well-researched and authentic work that pushes ideas forward to shape Africa’s future.
Through the blog, BGUN nurtures talent, builds intellectual confidence and connects a community committed to Africa’s rise, Africa’s renewal.
The BGUN Blog is indeed the 4th step of our contribution to the manifestation of the much-anticipated African Renaissance.
