We often get requests about ways to engage with Sesotho online, stay connected to literary news, and publish short stories, poetry, novels and visual art. We are not able to take on every project pitched to us so we created this page primarily as a collection of resources for our Lesotho audience to advance their creative writing and storytelling. We wish everyone great success with your creative projects!

Another Roadmap Learning Units
The Learning Units each present arts education histories with a different geographical and historical focus. They invite to engage with histories, to reflect on one’s own previously acquired knowledge and to re-activate historical experiences in current art and education practice. Seven topics provide orientation in the resources, allowing to follow a path connecting several learning units.
The methods proposed range from individual exercises to concepts for learning processes in groups over a whole semester. As the resources have been conceived for a wide range of different learning contexts internationally each learning unit contains guidance as to who are the specific addressees and the proposed context of use – appropriations and adaptions for other contexts are welcome!
