Published purpose

Reading CODE is a literacy project combining access to quality reading materials with educators who have the skills to use these materials effectively. Through its partners in Ethiopia, Tanzania, Ghana and Mali, CODE aims to increase the skills of teachers and librarians in more than 1,000 schools and libraries, sourcing and supplying books, and to improve the learning possibilities of 485,000 children. Reading CODE also connects national publishing industries and education networks to create a sustainable culture of literacy as a means of securing the future of all children and youth, and as a pillar of social development and economic prosperity.
