founded in 1955 under the auspices of UNESCO and UNICEF to promote excellence in cinema for children and youth, and of the Kids For Kids Festival (KFKF) community of filmmakers and educators, which promotes audiovisual media content created by children for children. To implement its programmes, Lola Kenya Screen has worked with the Goethe-Institut in Kenya, the Danish Film Institute, Prix Jeunesse of Germany, Africalia of Belgium, the Jan Vrijman Fund of the International Documentary Festival Amsterdam (IDFA) of The Netherlands, UNESCO, the Prince Claus Fund for Culture and Development of the Netherlands, and ComMattersKenya and ArtMatters. Info of Kenya. The partnership with UNESCO enabled Lola Kenya Screen to host the first film summit for independent television and audiovisual media content producers in eastern Africa, which gave birth to the Nairobi Declaration and IPO-Eastern Africa network of audiovisual media and Television producers in the Great Lakes and Horn of Africa regions. The collaboration with Africalia produced a network of film festivals in Africa that bring African cinema to Africans. This arrangement, called Cinetoile and funded by the European Commission and the Belgian Development Cooperation in 2010, helped strengthen Lola Kenya Screen's school and neighbourhood film screening outreach programme.
