Listen Later

Save the Children Rwanda will train 270 librarians in eight community libraries on the use of technology to strengthen a culture of reading in remote and rural communities while providing digitally accessible reading materials in Kinyarwanda that will keep 1.6 million children reading while unable to attend school. With the closure of schools, community libraries have taken on an even more important role in building critical literacy skills and fostering a reading culture.

This is their story.

About APIF

In May 2019, the International Publishers Association and Dubai Cares had a vision to support publishers across the African continent.

The result was a courageous initiative called the Africa Publishing Innovation Fund- An $800,000 fund to support literacy, book access, indigenous publishing, and library restoration.

This podcast series features the dreamers and free-thinkers who have stepped up in the face of adversity. We'll learn about their ambitious projects and a shared belief— that access to knowledge is an undeniable human right.
