Meet Olatoun Gabi-Williams

Olatoun Gabi-Williams is a dedicated advocate for African literature and authors of African descent worldwide. In 2015, she founded Borders Literature for all Nations, a multifaceted platform that encompasses online, print, and live publicity to showcase high-quality literature by Africans. Borders aims to elevate African publishing and amplify the voices of authors and scholars of African descent globally.

In 2020, Olatoun established the Borders SDG Book Club which targeted young adults in Africa with a view to fostering a love for reading and the application of literary content to the themes of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. From 2021, her involvement with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Book Club African Chapter further demonstrates her commitment to promoting education and awareness through literature.

In 2021, she founded the Ambassador Schools Program, a dynamic initiative enrolling teachers and children as active partners in the realization of the global goals. More than this, the Ambassador Schools Program website is home to educational resources developed by Olatoun and her child welfare team at Sponsor A Child Nigeria. With initial funds for printing and distribution provided by Procter & Gamble Nigeria (2009 – 2010) and the Embassy of France, Abuja (2014), these materials target educators and caregivers of the Global South who seek specific, concrete guidelines for delivering, self-auditing and reporting on child rights based child care and education services in their institutions.

Olatoun is a trustee of the Gabi Williams Alzheimer’s Foundation (GWAF)
