Nal'ibali Children's Literacy Charter launch
Nal'ibali, the national reading-for-enjoyment campaign, proudly launched a Charter on Children's Literacy Rights this World Book Day, Wednesday April 23, 2014.
The charter, freely available in all 11 official South African languages as a poster or download, highlights the range of literacy experiences all children should have to best enable them to learn to read and write. It is also a guide for adults, who are their children's first teachers, to do what they can to put the conditions and resources in place to ensure all children have equal access to their right to become fully literate citizens.
