"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."
— Nelson Mandela
Yet for millions of African children, education often begins with stories that reflect worlds they do not see themselves in. The richness of African cultures, languages, and values remains underrepresented in the books and media they consume, leading to a disconnection from their roots and a missed opportunity to nurture pride, confidence, and identity from an early age.
At Muna Kalati, we believe the change begins with stories. By increasing the visibility and accessibility of African-inspired content—through animated stories, eBooks, and audiobooks—we aim to reshape the narrative and empower the next generation with educational tools that reflect who they are. Our mission is simple but urgent: make Africanism visible in children’s literature, and in doing so, help raise a generation ready to change the world.

communication@munakalati.orgMuna Kalati, after 7 years of dedication to the promotion of African children's books through research, documentation and advocacy, wishes to respond to a crucial need: the absence of a centralized platform for distributing and monetizing African children's books limits access for young readers, contributing to a poor understanding of their cultural heritage and hindering efforts to improve their foundational literacy skills. This gap hinders access to work and limits distribution and sales opportunities. To remedy this, Muna Kalati has launched the development of a mobile and web application.
