About Open Country Mag

“An ambitious new magazine committed to African literature.” —Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Instagram “Essential content, beautiful production. Readers can get inside the literature, and industry insiders can discover new talent.” —Bernardine Evaristo, Twitter From culture icon Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie to transformational artists Teju Cole and Damon Galgut, to groundbreaking advocates Tsitsi Dangarembga and Maaza Mengiste, to the next generation of voices, Open Country Mag swiftly established itself, in little over a year, as a scene of revelation: the most important platform for Africa’s most important writers. And now, with our expansion into Nigerian film and TV, our mission deepens: we are contextualizing Africa in the global conversation, telling essential, in-depth stories of ideas that shape the continental literary and film cultures, and creating opportunities by linking, for the first time, two influential industries. Our vision, guided by values of integrity and communal support, is to attain that media benchmark that has so far been exclusive to Western organisations: become a truly multiplatform space for cultural storytelling.
