Scheduled from August 12 to 14, 2026, the three-day event brings together maritime professionals, writers, and young storytellers under one roof.  This year\u2019s edition runs on the theme \u201cVoyages Through Chokepoints: Power, Passage and Lives at Sea.\u201d It\u2019s a theme that zeroes in on the realities of global shipping routes \u2014 the busy corridors, the tensions, and the everyday human stories that play out in ocean transportation.  The bootcamp, organized by Ezinne Azunna, is packed with activity. Participants can expect mentorship from experienced voices, intensive writing masterclasses, and a guided tour of the Nigerian Navy\u2019s Naval Dockyard \u2014 a rare behind-the-scenes look at maritime operations.  Fifty selected participants will get the chance to share original stories drawn from maritime experiences. Ten of the strongest pieces will be published in the Maritime Writes Anthology, giving young Nigerian writers a real platform and helping grow the country\u2019s maritime literary culture.  Headlining the event are Dr. Emeka Akabogu and Capt. Warredi Enisuoh, two respected names in the sector.  Beyond the writing, the project\u2019s bigger goal is simple: deepen public understanding of maritime issues and the lives of those who work the seas.
