PANCOCOJAMS EDITOR'S NOTE
The YouTube videos that are showcased in this five part pancocojams series focus on some hair styles that are worn or were worn by Black females in an African nation or among females in the African Diaspora. In selecting African nations, I've limited my focus to countries in West Africa, East Africa, Central Africa, and South Africa. I didn't include North Africa because of the difficulty finding YouTube videos of females who didn't have their hair covered. I apologize if this series doesn't focus on your country.
The videos in each post in this series are given in alphabetical order, except for Video #1. The geographical continent and region for each nation is given in parenthesis after that nation's name.
I had a few criteria for the videos that I selected for this blog series. I searched YouTube for videos of a particular nation and selected one for this series that featured girls and were of reasonably good visual and audio quality. I was interested in showcasing videos from 2019 on, but couldn't find videos from that period of time for a few of the nations that are featured in this series. I particularly favored videos for this series that featured Black female students in schools. Watching those videos show how similar and different schools are throughout the world.
None of these YouTube videos have "hair styles" as their theme. However, I'm using these videos to document hair styles that some Black girls wore/wear in those countries when those videos were produced.
In addition to documenting certain female hairstyles within a specific nation during the time periods noted in this post, these videos can serve as an introduction to certain nations. The content of these videos can also be viewed for aesthetic purposes (particularly those videos that showcases the singing, music, and/or the movement routines of the choirs/school student assemblies).
These videos aren't meant to suggest that the way/s that any population wear their hair should be an issue of concern or was/is one of the most important issues of concern for that population or for other people regarding that population.
Click the "Black hair styles throughout the world" tag that is given below and/or the other tags that are found below for more pancocojams posts on the subject of Black people's hair styles.
One video is given for each of the countries that are presented in this post. The nations that are represented by these videos are given in alphabetical order.

One man, one camera, 197 country around the world
…. I chose to visit every country on the planet and film
them to present them in High Definition format but in a raw way, without music,
without comment. Simply, reality in all its truth. Thus, you will be able to
make your own idea of the world in which you live.
Currently, I have already visited nearly 170 countries and
my world tour continues….
COLOMBIA [South America]
The People of Coqui | Colombia Nomad Stories | World Nomads
World Nomads, Apr 15, 2016
Find out more about a strong community on the edge of the world, with this film by World Nomads’ Brian Rapsey. Descended from African slaves, who escaped from gold mines around 150 years ago, the people of Coqui, on the remote Pacific coast of Colombia, live on the very fringes of the global economy. Bartering mostly with fish, bananas and other produce, they have little communication or interaction with the outside world, and yet they take visitors in without pretension, and as if they were family.

Education in Democratic Republic of Congo
UNICEF UK, Sep 8, 2009
DRC is currently facing a national disaster. Half of all
children do not go to school, and most of those who do are boys.
The Government budget for education is not enough to pay
operational costs or teacher salaries, therefore parents are forced to pay high
school fees.
Parents' main concern is feeding their children, so with
limited money, education becomes secondary.

From https://www.musicinafrica.net/fr/node/15320 Madagascar's Tana Gospel Choir ready for European tour,14 juin 2016
...."Madagascar's famous Tana Gospel Choir returns to Europe for
the first time since 2006 to give concerts in 10 cities in Germany and France
between 17 June to 19 July.
The Tana Gospel Choir was formed in 2004 by 20 singers and
musicians passionate about gospel and intent on interpreting classical hymns
with traditional influences and new trends. They first performed together in
October 2004 at the 14th edition of Madajazzcar, the largest jazz festival in
the Indian Ocean region. In 2006, TGC released their first album, titled
Misaotra Anao. That year they made their first European tour, performing in
Germany, France and Switzerland. Their other albums include Mandigny (2009) and
Mandrakizay (2013). In 2010, the group won Best Gospel Song at the RDJ Mozika
Awards, Madagascar's most prestigious music awards."...
