Africa Media Online (AMO)

Based in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, Africa Media Online (AMO) is a marketplace that sells publication rights of African-based photos, audio files and text produced by journalists from Africa. The requested media files are delivered via high res download off the AMO website.

It has over 150 000 African-based pictures available online. The organisation prides itself in providing a platform that enables Africans to tell Africa's story in the global arena. An important part of this vision is the development of indigenous photographers and photo archives. Through this vision, AMO bridges the gap between picture buyers and photographers.

Apart from photos, AMO also archives and sells audio files and recordings that deal with the following subjects in Africa: Agriculture, Commerce and Industry, Daily Life, Education, History, Indigenous people groups, Scenery, Social documentary, Tourism and Wildlife.
