Worldreader’s Pre-Primary Program

We work with partners whose programs reach families, communities, healthcare workers, and preschools to normalize a culture of reading and storytelling early on in a child’s life. Our program focuses on strengthening teacher practice in preschools and the home learning environment, ultimately promoting cognitive and language growth and social-emotional learning in young children.

Improving reading development in primary schools

All children should be able to read with fluency by the age of 10. Yet over half of children in low- and middle-income countries cannot read and understand a simple story by the time they leave primary school.

Worldreader’s Primary Grade Reading Program

We seek to improve a child’s digital literacy and reading proficiency by focusing on time spent reading and the five core reading skills: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. Beyond skills development, we encourage a culture of reading for pleasure. This ensures quality learning for all students and builds a foundation of life-long learning.

Empowering young people to become global citizens of tomorrow

There are 1.8 billion young people in the world. More than a fifth of them, the majority women, lack sufficient training, education, and employment opportunities.
