About this opportunity

InsightsOut Africa is a research participation call for creative hubs, powered by the British Council and implemented by Andani. Africa, HEVA Fund, the Creative Economy Practice at CcHUB and TFCC.

It invites hubs to describe how they work, what they struggle with and what they make possible for the creative people around them. The research covers hubs across Abuja, Kano, Lagos, Port Harcourt and Enugu, and its aim is to strengthen the evidence base on the role creative hubs play in Nigeria's creative economy and across Africa.

Whatever the shape of your space, physical, virtual or hybrid, your story counts as data point and as testimony. Participation is free and takes the form of a short questionnaire.

Creative hubs that bring creative people together and support practitioners, entrepreneurs, startups and creative enterprises, including collectives, co-operatives, labs, incubators and other creative spaces or networks, are encouraged to take part before the stated
