Month of Literacy planned in celebration of SKN Authors
BASSETERRE, St. Kitts, July 19, 2021 (Ministry of Foreign Affairs): The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) is pleased to inform the general public that the High Commission of St. Kitts and Nevis in London has embarked on an initiative to showcase nationals of St. Kitts and Nevis who are published authors.
The August 2021 month-long activity dubbed ‘Month of Literacy’ will see the use of the
London High Commission’s social media and other platforms to feature the published literary
works of sons and daughters of the St. Kitts-Nevis soil.
One of the objectives of this enterprise is to highlight the scholarly achievements of nationals in
the area of written word. It is also hoped that this venture will inspire other nationals to write,
tell and publish their stories.
The Ministry is delighted to invite published authors from St. Kitts and Nevis to participate in this activity by submitting the following for the attention of the Minister-Counselor, The High Commission of St. Kitts and Nevis, 10 Kensington Court, London, W8 5DL, United Kingdom by Friday, 30th July, 2021:
• A copy of the author’s published book(s)
• A photo (headshot)
• A biography of the author (maximum of 100 words)
• A link to a website where interested persons can purchase the author’s book(s)
Authors will be featured for a period between 1 and 4 days, depending on the level of response
received.
