Workshop: The Importance of African Literature

What are the distinct features that are noticeable when we look at African inspired literature as compared to the rest of the world?
Join us as we look into the perspectives surrounding the inception and establishment of African inspired literature and its importance in spreading the beauty of African cultures and values in a globalised setting. This will be a journey through various themes attached in African literature as well as varying perceptions amidst contemporary issues challenging the growth and spread of African literature. The workshop will also look into how we can engage the young African generation towards taking up the mantle of keeping the fiery fires of African inspired literature.
The event is free and will be held in English.
