Literacy Program

Room to Read Bangladesh’s Literacy Program (LP) creates independent readers and lifelong learners, who are breaking the cycle of illiteracy within their own families. Our Literacy Program trains and coaches teachers, creates quality books and cur­ricular materials, and establishes librar­ies filled with diverse children’s books in local languages that can be enjoyed at school or home.

We partner with local communities, gov­ernments and the publishing industry to test and implement innovative models that help children succeed in school and develop a love of reading.

We combine the science of learning to read with the magic of loving to read. We sustain students’ reading skills development by providing child-friendly libraries and quality children’s books.
