We are proud to share that WIFT Zambia President, Becky Ngoma is representing Zambia at this year’s DocuBox International Partnership summit in Nairobi, Kenya. 🇿🇲🇰🇪

She has been warmly welcomed by the DocuBox Team as the summit runs alongside two major programmes:

✅️Rough Cut Lab Africa (RCLA) 2026 and ✅️Docubox Creative Producers Lab

This year marks an exciting new chapter for DocuBox with the launch of its first-ever development grants for feature-length fiction. RCLA brings together filmmakers, editors, and story consultants working with long-form projects at the rough-cut stage.

Across the week, filmmakers, producers, mentors, funders, festival programmers, distributors and industry organisations from across Africa and beyond are gathering in Nairobi to engage with projects in development, connect with colleagues, and take part in conversations shaping the future of film on the continent.

Connection to this Summit was made possible by WIFT Africa via WIFT Africa Conference 2026, under the Creative Convergence event powered by Ministry of Youth Sports and Arts, CIBS and Kwimbo .

Special thanks to WIFT Zambia partners who enable our developmental endeavours @ Zambia Airways, Nomads Court Lodge, Basali Media, Califonia beverages, and Crest Lodges.

✨ YESTERDAY WAS POWERFUL ✨

WIFT Chapter Showcasing
Nigeria, Senegal, Ghana, and Kenya took the stage and reminded us why African women’s stories cannot be silenced.

From bold filmmaking perspectives to fearless conversations on craft, funding and visibility, each chapter brought its fire, its heritage and its future. Five nations. One sisterhood. Countless doors opened.

This is what happens when African women in film claim space. 🇳🇬🇸🇳🇬🇭🇰🇪🇿🇲

And later it was a night of Royalty 👑 at WIFT Gala Dinner & Awards

African Queens of film, TV and storytelling were recognized and awarded their excellence.

To every winner, You are seen. You are honored. You are the shine. Keep leading, keep creating, keep owning your throne.

A special thank you to all our sponsors and supporters who believed in this vision, funded the room and made it possible for Queens and Leaders to be celebrated the way they deserve. Zikomo! 🙏🏽

The work continues today. Let’s keep building.
