The latest news from IBBY Pakistan is very exciting!
The Sharjah/IBBY Fund for Children in Crisis is sponsoring a project to initiate a network of community libraries across Pakistan and the launch is marked by a national conference in Lahore.
Furthermore, USAID is launching the Pakistan Reading Project, which is the biggest project they have undertaken to date in Pakistan. Alif Laila (IBBY Pakistan) is one of the sub grantees will be working with USAID to set up 300 community libraries and running 6 mobile libraries that will operate for 5 years.
With the Sharjah/IBBY Fund for Children in Crisis and USAID the children of Pakistan have a brighter future!
We wish our friends and colleagues at IBBY Pakistan every success. Liz Page
