The Gifted Writers' Programme
The Gifted Writers' Programme
The VoFG Gifted Writers' Programme aims to foster a love of writing. This programme identifies raw writing talent that can be honed with the assistance and support of the VoFG Education team. The one-on-one feedback given to these talented writers allows them to review their story drafts with a more analytical eye and a more focused approach. The feedback makes them aware of their writing abilities and storytelling potential.
One of the most amazing competitions by far that I have taken part in. Not only is it a very interesting competition, but it lets students put a lot of effort into research and learn new topics about the Sustainable Development Goals (the SDGs).
