Collective


Welcome to UniVerse Collective,
Global artistry, local voices
UniVerse Collective is an creative space dedicated to amplifying the voices of young writers and artists around the world. We are primarily based between New York, USA and Kitwe, Zambia and our mission is to provide a space for aspiring poets, storytellers, and artists to share their creativity and perspectives with the world. Through our carefully curated content, we aim to inspire, educate, and entertain our readers while fostering a community of literary enthusiasts. Join us in this literary journey as we celebrate vibrant and diverse youth voices.
​
​​​​​UniVerse Collective's founder and editor in chief is Erika Fuse Lunenfeld, a New York based teen poet whose work can be found in literary magazines. A few of her poems will also be published in an anthology at the end of this year.
​
The first local chapter of UniVerse Collective is based at Garneton School in Kitwe. This chapter is led by co-presidents and emerging poets Racheal Chanda and Wisdom Simwaba.
​
Please contact us if you are interested in starting your own local chapter of UniVerse Collective.
