As Professor Benedict Oramah of Afreximbank indicates, “Afreximbank is committed to celebrating and amplifying a diverse range of African voices and experiences, thereby catalysing the creative industry and unleashing the creative industry’s potential to drive economic growth across Africa.”  VP is committed to this principle.  VPs’ themes will explore a diverse range of African voices and experiences, highlighting lesser-known African stories and thereby placing Africa at the forefront of contemporary global cinema.   VPs’ projects will open a new realm for African cinema and TV, thereby creating more jobs in this creative field throughout the continent. African filmmakers will discover a whole new realm of African thespian, directing, and producing creativity, thereby aligning it with VPs mandate.
