November 7 was designated as International African Writers' Day by the Conference of African Ministers of Education and Culture in Cotonou, Benin in 1991.

This year marked the 33rd year of this crucial day when Africans commemorate African writers' contributions to the continent's growth.

This year, the conference turned its attention to Artificial Intelligence and its impact on literature, social justice and social change, and what the future portends in the creative and cultural space.


We spoke to Prof. Vuyisile Msila who delivered the 12th International African Writers Day lecture.
