The Women's Empowerment Project (TWEP), is a Sutton based charity that works to create opportunities for African women and girls, to realise their full potential as confident, independent and skilled individuals.
TWEP are currently running a writing competition for unpublished writers and are seeking stories that portray the life and experiences of a typical African girl. They are also interested in illustrators who can produce an image to the same theme that will be used as the book cover. The target audience are 8 - 17 year olds.
Further details about the TWEP Book Price including the information pack can be obtained from www.twepbookprize.wordpress.com|
Please note that the deadline for submissions has been extended to January 30th 2012, and the winning entry will be announced in early March 2012. You can also download the sponsorship pack, if you are interested in contributing towards this project.
