WEAVER PRESS publishes books from and about southern Africa and is committed to ensuring that the results of research, scholarship and creative writing are made available in their region of origin, and not only in foreign markets.

Our list focuses on political and social history, the environment, media issues, women’s and children’s rights, fiction and literary criticism.

In addition, Weaver Press co-publishes and distributes titles developed by the Women's Law Centre, Harare, and works closely with publishers such as James Currey (UK).

We also assist international NGOs with the publication and distribution of their publications in southern Africa. Enquiries from interested organisations are welcome.
