About Us

The Catholic News Agency for Africa (CANAA) is being established as an editorially independent news service providing pastoral, socio-political, economic news stories, features, commentaries, analysis and multimedia content relevant to readers, listeners and viewers in Africa as well as Catholic media outlets in Africa and beyond. This continental communication initiative has grown out of a desire to share news and other information among the local Churches of Africa, as well as to satisfy a longing to have the voice of Africa’s Church heard within and beyond its borders.

Governed by a Board of Directors consisting of professionally competent African natives representing as much as possible the African main linguistic and regional diversity, the news agency will report on the Church activities on the continent in view of enhancing a realistic image and an appreciation of the Church in Africa by engaging Africans in telling their own stories.

Mission Statement

To report news stories, features, commentaries and analysis about and of interest to the local Churches in Africa, disseminating this as multimedia content to the Church in Africa, to the Church globally and to anyone interested in the reality and development of the Church in Africa, making use of the modern digital and social portals.

1. Advocacy of the respect of Human rights and the dignity of the human person.
