A programme is underway to obtain accurate, well-sampled light curves for Cepheids in several Local Group galaxies. We have succeeded in attaining accuracies of a few hundredths of a magnitude for Cepheids at least as faint as r = 19.5. Photometry for six known Cepheids and three other variables in NGC 6822 is presented. Although better sampling in phase is needed to allow full light curves analysis, a preliminary comparison with galactic Cepheids shows some interesting differences.
