About Great African Reads (GAR)

This is an intriguing portal for you to enter the world of knowledge created by African authors, researchers, opinion leaders, experts, pundits and scholars in a wide array of fields and areas.

This platform rides to town as the solution provider to age-old barriers faced by African writers in giving their works a deserved global reception. The question that has summarised this challenge is: “can anything good come from Africa?”

GAR is the long-awaited evidence of the fertile and largely unexplored knowledge adventure Africa is. Authorship on the platform has been duly restricted to persons of African descent to entrench this need for an exclusive space to let African know-how and content live and breath freely.

GAR presents a seamless web – and app- based medium to access a very expansive variety of African writing at a very fair cost. The content system is married to a simplified and secure payment mechanism for ease of use.
