Queer Catalyst is an ongoing collaborative project between the GALA Queer Archive, the Fak’ugesi African Digital Innovation Festival and Future Kwaai. This project strives to amplify the history and experiences of African queer people through creative digital expressions. In 2023, GALA piloted a student animation workshop in collaboration with Afrika Queer+. A selection of these students were then invited to further develop their animations under the mentorship of Umlilo aka Kwaai Diva. Their final projects were showcased at the 2023 Fak’ugesi Festival.
