Why Literacy?

“For everyone everywhere, literacy is…a basic human right.” Kofi Annan, Former UN Secretary-General.

Literacy is very important – many would say a human right.  A good quality basic education equips pupils with literacy skills for life and further learning; literate parents are more likely to keep their children healthy and send their children to school; literate people are better able to access other education and employment opportunities; and, collectively, literate societies are better geared to meet development challenges.

Mogonjet Library project was started with the aim of developing a reading culture in Mogonjet community. The facility will contain curriculum-based books, novels and other literature towards a holistic education.
