The Writers Project of Ghana has announced the opening of submissions for the 2023 Abena Korantemaa Oral History Prize.
This is an annual prize for Oral History narrated by a woman who is 65 years or older.
The Abena Korantemaa Oral History Prize was established in honour of Abena Korantemaa by her family, and is sponsored by MAKEDA PR with media support from Joy News.
The prize is set up to encourage younger Ghanaians to document history and contribute to its preservation.
The prize also seeks to encourage the production of creative non- fiction from Ghana.
To enter the competition, you should make a voice recording of a piece of oral history told by a woman who is 65 years or older (not yourself), and send it to Writers Project of Ghana.
There are prizes to be won!
