On #WorldBookDay, GS Gisozi students in Kigali stepped into a story. Using the NABU app, students explored Bwiza n’Igiti cy’Umwembe in Kinyarwanda. Reading in a mother tongue builds confident readers. To the teachers, thank you.

We loved the Stories in Living Languages session at Brooklyn Children’s Museum. Families shared stories in African languages, creating space for them to be celebrated. We are proud to bring NABU’s books so families keep reading.

A library is only open when a child understands the stories inside. Currently, 60% of kids lack books in their mother tongue; without them, the door to literacy remains heavy. Partners like @AgatiRwanda help us reach kids with books they understand.

Partnering with Two Nomads at @STATanzania in Bagamoyo! We delivered 300 books in English & Swahili.

Education works best when children see themselves in the stories they read. This #InternationalDayOfEducation, we’re highlighting the power of literacy in languages children understand. When young people can read, they don’t just learn; they lead.
