Africa
Delivery in Africa is conservation- and aid-led rather than commercial. The continent has one directory entry of its own, the Great Apes Film Initiative in Uganda; three organizations profiled under other regions have also screened here and appear as cross-listed entries.

No organization on this page runs a commercial hire business, and only one is based on the continent. The Great Apes Film Initiative bolted dynamo kits to ordinary bikes for gorilla-conservation screenings around Kisoro, Uganda; it is documented between 2011 and 2014, and its status since then is uncertain 1. The three cross-listed organizations work from bases elsewhere: Cinécyclo Sénégal, the autonomous offshoot of the French association, is loosely structured with no dated recent activity 2; Cinecicleta's expedition covered 18,000 km, fourteen countries and 217 screenings between 2015 and 2017 3,4; and Electric Pedals' 18 kg battery-free backpack kits serve wildlife NGOs across six countries, including a Malawi roadshow that reached over 14,000 people in six weeks 5.
South Africa's Sunshine Cinema, a solar-powered mobile cinema network, is not listed: nothing in its documentation describes pedal generation 6.
