10th Funda Mzantsi Championship – Building Creative Minds


The National Library of South Africa in collaboration with the Department of Correctional Services and George Municipality is hosting the 10th Funda Mzantsi Championship in George, Western Cape from 23 – 27 September 2019 under the theme “Building Creative Minds”

The Funda Mzantsi project was in response to the survey conducted by the South African Book Development Council in 2007, and the project was started as part of the National Library of South Africa’s mandate to instil a culture of reading amongst South African communities.  

Last year, 75 book clubs competed at the 09thFunda Mzantsi Championship and we saw the level of participation and competition grow significantly. For the first time last year, a book club for visually impaired people participated in the Competition.
