About The Flip Project

The ‘Flip Project’ is a project to enhance citizen’s participation in the life of their communities.

The Flip Project is managed by Flipknowvation Limited (a communications and research company) and NewZambian Innovations. (a civil society organisation).

The project has developed a participatory internet social media platform called Constituency Watch on facebook to enhance public social accountability and various multimedia materials such as a set of TV shows (Skits in various forms including satirical and cartoon content), The Kavundula Weekly Newspaper and The Flip Magazine and documentaries in partnership with other organisations.

The cartoon magazine ‘Flip’, was the first of its kind for Zambia with cartoons as primary content and focussing on social, economic and political issues with a satirical slant. The Kavundula Weekly Newspaper also presents a first in Newspaper design, content and innovation. The newspaper is built on a foundation of people’s diverse voices sourced from various social media. It acts as a bridge between digital and print media, ushering in a new age of citizen journalism. The backbone of the publication is not trained journalists but a collation of social media tweets of news and commentary on issues at the core of Zambian society.
