CASP creates synergy, unification in the artistic scene and hence works on a united Africa.

The first edition of the Africa Cup of Slam Poetry took place in N'Djamena, Chad, in November 2018. The event was a 5-day festival filled with concerts, workshops, panel discussions and of course the championship competition. 20 countries participated in the Cup battling it out for the continental trophy. There was a draw for placements in the group matches, then the round of 16, quarter finals, semifinal, match of third place and the final itself. Al Faruq from Senegal emerged as the winner and Thuthu from South Africa came in second.
