Health Care Videos

Nafuna Africa leverages animation to advance public health education, partnering with organizations like ZAPIM and integrating critical messaging into our Angry Mwana series. During COVID-19, we produced multilingual animations on prevention and vaccination, while our malaria-focused videos for ZAPIM earned Ministry of Health endorsement. By weaving nutrition, hygiene, and mental health into children’s entertainment, Angry Mwana became a tool for generational health literacy, proving animation’s power to simplify complex medical topics into actionable community knowledge.

COVID-19 Response
As the pandemic emerged, we rapidly developed animations to combat misinformation, focusing on:

  • Preventive Measures: Visual guides to handwashing, mask use, and social distancing in local languages.

  • Vaccination Advocacy: Simplified explainers addressing vaccine safety and efficacy concerns.
    These videos were distributed through community networks, radio stations, and social media to bridge language and literacy gaps.

ZAPIM Malaria Campaign
Collaborating with ZAPIM and the Ministry of Health, we created a three-video series:

  1. Prevention: Demonstrating bed net use and environmental management.

  2. Symptoms & Treatment: Encouraging early clinic visits and proper medication use.

  3. Community Mobilization: Training volunteers to identify and report cases.
    The Ministry adopted these as official resources, amplifying their reach to rural clinics and schools.

Angry Mwana Health Integration
Our flagship series subtly educates young audiences through:

  • Nutrition Episodes: Characters growing and preparing balanced meals.

  • Hygiene Storylines: Handwashing songs and clean water practices.

  • Mental Health Arcs: Addressing bullying and emotional resilience.
    This approach embeds lifelong health habits within engaging storytelling.
