Africa No Filter Foundation
Nicolas serves as Council Member of the Africa No Filter Foundation, incorporated in Mauritius.
Africa No Filter is a non-profit advocacy organisation that is shifting stereotypical narratives about Africa through storytelling that reflects a dynamic continent of progress, innovation, and opportunity. Under the leadership of executive director Moky Makura, the organisation has become a thought leader in narrative change, delivering grants, research, and advocacy that challenge outdated portrayals of Africa in global discourse.
With a vision of a world where the prevailing narrative within and about Africa is reflective of a progressive and dynamic continent, Africa No Filter works to ensure that Africa is seen and heard in all its complexity, potential, and diversity.
The Africa No Filter Council is responsible for governance, asset management, and ensuring the foundation’s objectives are met. Council Members operate in a capacity similar to a board of directors, guiding strategic direction and safeguarding the organisation’s mission.
“Africa No Filter’s mission resonates deeply with my own purpose and the work we have done at APO Group for nearly two decades. My appointment as Council Member of the Africa No Filter Foundation reflects a natural alignment of values and a shared vision to reframe Africa’s narrative through authentic, impactful storytelling. I believe that changing how the world sees Africa starts with empowering Africans to tell their own stories of ambition, ingenuity, and possibility. I am honoured to join the Council of the Africa No Filter Foundation, and to deepen my commitment to reshaping perceptions of Africa, driving meaningful change, and amplifying the continent’s influence on the global stage,” said Nicolas Pompigne-Mognard, Founder and Chairman of APO Group.
