Global Library Initiative

Global Library Initiative Our vision is to achieve sustainable educational change in under-resourced global regions.

After working in both private and government-run schools in underserved nations, it is obvious that instruction hasn't changed much over the last few centuries in these facilities. However, educators need resources that support research-based methods, such as appropriate texts for teaching literacy. Problems regarding access to resources are clear: there are hardly any resources in native language

s for instructors to use with children, especially when it comes to informational texts. The books available are often donated from well-intentioned foreigners but written in the wrong language, or the texts come from the very countries that colonized them and established the academic languages yet the books don't represent the students or the culture. After years of looking for resources that just weren't there, our idea of Global Library Initiative was born, and we are working to fill the deficit of available and appropriate texts for under-resourced areas.
