Afripedia was directed by directors Teddy Goitom, Benjamin Taft and Senay Berhe and produced by Teddy Goitom[17].
The Afripedia research started in 2009 and it’s been an ongoing project. The project has been self-funded from the start; directors of Afripedia filmed commercials in order to support the documentary series. As the expenses rose, financing hasn’t come easy[18], so the directors travelled the Europe to pitch the idea and finally received funding from a cultural fund[19] The Swedish Postcode Foundation[20] to finish the final episodes.
