Who we are and what we do.

We are The SolutionsPaper, and we believe in the power of stories to change the world. Tired of hearing about all the bad stuff? So are we. That’s why we focus on the good. We are at the intersection of storytelling, civic engagement, and social impacts.

We are all about finding and sharing the amazing work people are doing to fix problems in our communities. Whether it’s someone fighting to stop violence against women, cleaning up the environment, or bringing peace to places torn apart by conflict, we want to tell their stories.

We know there are a lot of challenges facing Nigeria and Africa, but we also know there are incredible people working hard to overcome them. That’s who we’re here to highlight. So if you’re looking for news that inspires and uplifts, you’ve come to the right place.

Mission

To inspire and empower communities by showcasing solutions to grassroots’ challenges.

Vision

We aim to propagate the use of constructive and solutions journalism across Africa, raise public interest in societal development and inform citizens on what solutions have worked.

Impact in numbers

Part of what The SolutionsPaper does apart from curating and chronicling responses to social problems to drive civic change, is to spread the “gospel of solutions and constructive journalism” across Africa by training and mentoring early-career reporters and campus journalists. 

Through virtual and physical training, we have equipped and trained over 100 reporters and storytellers across Nigeria including Kenya, Ghana and Zimbabwe.

Since The SolutionsPaper’s inception, we have published 20 features from writers across Africa and over 15 of them have been indexed to the  Solution Journalism Network.
