For Artists, by Artists.”
Creative opportunities exist, but access to information about them is uneven.
Opportunities are spread across websites, social media platforms, mailing lists and professional networks. They can be lengthy, difficult to assess quickly, or published only in English. It is also not always clear whether East African creatives are eligible.
As a result, creatives can miss opportunities that may be relevant to them because they did not find them, could not determine whether they were eligible, or could not easily access the information.
At the same time, organisations offering opportunities need effective ways to reach the creative communities they are seeking to support. There is a gap between those offering opportunities and those looking for them. Sanaa Alerts exists to bridge that gap.
The Problem
Fursa za sanaa na ubunifu zipo, lakini taarifa zake hazipatikani kwa urahisi kwa kila mtu.
Zimesambaa katika tovuti, mitandao ya kijamii, barua pepe na mitandao ya kitaaluma, mara nyingi zikiwa ndefu, kwa Kiingereza pekee au bila kuweka wazi nani anastahili kuomba.
Sanaa Alerts inaziba pengo hili kwa kurahisisha upatikanaji na uelewa wa taarifa za fursa, huku ikiunganisha wabunifu na fursa zinazowafaa.
Our Role
We connect opportunity providers with creative practitioners by bringing relevant opportunities into one accessible platform.
We identify opportunities ourselves and also accept submissions from organisations through our opportunity submission form. We review submissions against our publishing criteria before featuring them.
Sanaa Alerts inalenga wabunifu wa Afrika Mashariki, huku ikihakikisha kuwa kila fursa inayochapishwa inawaruhusu wabunifu wa Tanzania kuomba.
Fursa inaweza kuwa ya kimataifa, bara au kikanda, lakini ikiwa Watanzania hawastahili kuomba, hatuichapishi.
Kanuni hii ndiyo msingi wa Sanaa Alerts na itaendelea kuongoza uteuzi wa fursa tunazoshirikisha kadri jukwaa linavyokua.
Our publishing
principle
Sanaa Alerts is for East African creatives, but every opportunity we feature must be open to Tanzanian applicants.
An opportunity may be international, continental or regional in scope, but if Tanzanian creatives are not eligible to apply, we do not feature it.
This allows creatives across East Africa to use and benefit from the platform while ensuring that the opportunities we publish are relevant to our starting community in Tanzania.
This principle will remain central as Sanaa Alerts develops.
Kanuni Yetu ya Uchapishaji
Each Sanaa Alerts feature brings together the information a creative needs to quickly assess an opportunity:
This allows a creative to quickly determine whether an opportunity is worth pursuing before going to the original source for the full requirements and application process.
