The Pan-African Writers Association (PAWA) is more than an idea; it is a living, breathing organism sustained by the dedicated work of its Secretariat. Based in Accra, Ghana, at the PAWA House, the Secretariat serves as the operational heart and administrative nerve center of our continental literary union.

This dynamic team translates the vision of our General Assembly and Executive Board into actionable programs, fosters connections between our member associations across the globe, and champions the rights and visibility of African writers every day. They are the stewards of our legacy and the architects of our future engagements.

Here, you meet the core officials who manage the vital daily work of PAWA—the custodians of our collective voice.
