Abstract: The Congress of South African Writers (COSAW) was launched in July 1987. It arose out of the need for a grassroots writer's organisation that sought to promote literature and redress the imbalances of Apartheid education. COSAW organises literary events, conducts research, liaises with literacy organisations, establishes writing groups, facilitates workshops for aspirant writers from disadvantaged communities and publishes materials.
