AllAfrica is a website that aggregates news produced primarily on the African continent about all areas of African life, politics, issues and culture. It is available in both English and French and produced by AllAfrica Global Media, which has offices in Cape Town, Dakar, Lagos, Monrovia, Nairobi and Washington, D.C.. AllAfrica is the successor to the African News Service.

Its stories can be displayed by categories and subcategories such as country, region, and by news topic. In 2008, AllAfrica rolled out a comment board system.

It has the contents of 127 contemporary African newspapers, and news feeds from several hundred organizations internationally. It maintains a searchable 400,000-item archive dating back to 1997.[1] The president of AllAfrica Global Media, Amadou Mahtar Ba, is a member of the International Advisory Board of the African Press Organization.[2]
