Commonwealth Writers

Commonwealth Writers is a program that encourages storytelling from countries within the Commonwealth, a group of nations mostly made up of former British territories. It aims to promote diverse voices, cultural understanding, and social change through literature—such as novels, short stories, and other writings. By supporting writers, hosting competitions, and sharing stories globally, Commonwealth Writers helps showcase the rich, varied experiences of its countries, fostering connection, conversation, and greater appreciation of different cultures and perspectives within this international community.
