On a continent rich in oral traditions and with a contemporary literary scene that is constantly thriving, this initiative stands as a beacon of encouragement for creativity and the preservation of cultural identity through the written word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the Miles Morland Foundation?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Founded with the aim of supporting literature and the arts in Africa, the Miles Morland Foundation (MMF) has been playing a crucial role in the African literary scene. Through its annual writing grants, the foundation enables talented writers to devote themselves entirely to creating works of fiction or non-fiction (biographies, essays, history) without the financial pressures of everyday life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Cape Verde, a country with an exceptionally rich literary history \u2014 from the Claridade era to contemporary authors who transcend the boundaries of the diaspora \u2014 this fellowship provides an unrivalled platform for international exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Financial Support and Scholarship Terms and Conditions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Candidates selected for the fiction fellowship receive a grant of 18,000 pounds sterling (GBP), paid out over a period of up to 12 months (1,500 GBP per month). For non-fiction writers, depending on the research requirements and the plan submitted, the fellowship may be extended to up to 18 months, totalling 27,000 GBP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This support is intended solely to enable the writer to focus on writing their work; a monthly progress report (of around 10,000 words) must be submitted to ensure the project\u2019s ongoing development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eligibility Requirements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To apply for the 2026 edition, candidates must meet the following criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>To be a citizen of an African country or to have parents who were born in Africa (which naturally includes all citizens of Cape Verde).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Write in English. Although Cape Verde\u2019s identity is defined by Portuguese and Creole, the work submitted for this specific scholarship must be written in English.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To have already published a complete work (a book) or to have had works published in prominent anthologies or literary journals (with proofs).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Important Details Regarding the Application<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you meet the requirements and have a compelling story to share with the world, don\u2019t miss this opportunity to submit your proposal.
