==History==
In 2013, Michael Peters created the Africanews project. According to Michael Peters, when someone said the question, "Why Africanews?", he responded:
:Africa is a land of opportunities. It is a continent which is rising. But why can’t we hear what the Africans have to say, not only on African affairs, but on world affairs too? The demand for unbiased News is unmet. There is a gap to fill. This is why we are launching Africanews to pioneer independent News from the African perspective. A new adventure starts for a fully-fledged Pan-African network whose unique mission is empowering people through independent and reliable news.
On January 4, 2016, the network was launched in and outside of Africa.https://www.africanews.com/page/about/
