Read for Fun is a new pilot project designed to improve reading in middle schools in partnership with HSBC, Macmillan and the Ministry of Education.
Reading opens up a world of opportunities for children exposing them to other cultures, attitudes, and issues such as the environment. Good reading habits, established early, improve later performance in a range of life skills as well as developing language and critical thinking skills.
We aim to inspire reading for fun by introducing graded readers and storytelling workshops into selected schools in Algiers and Oran, with the potential to expand the project further into other areas.
