"A staggering 1.6 billion children were out of school for extensive periods of time due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As countries reopen schools, there is a critical opportunity to build forward better. Being able to read with understanding and solve problems confidently boosts a child’s own confidence in her or his own capability to progress and inspires supporting efforts from teachers, parents and caregivers."

"Learning to read in a language that they use and understand is one of the most critical factors in determining whether children develop the strong literacy skills that are foundational for all later learning."

"The mother tongue is the language of home, of play, of comfort and comprehension... The children were so excited and motivated. When they are taught in their own language, they work even beyond what the teacher asks. It is fantastic."

The importance and impact of teaching and learning in the mother tongue cannot be emphasized enough. We at BurdaEducation are proud to create and print books in several local languages to help children learn to read.

Lessons in local — rather than colonial — languages deliver results, educationalists say

Because sometimes a good education can mean the difference between life and death. ⬇️

✅ If all girls had a secondary education, child deaths would be cut in half, SAVING 3 million lives.
✅ 1 extra year of schooling can increase a woman’s earnings by 20%.

“If you plan for a year, plant a seed. If for 10 years, plant a tree. If for 100 years, teach the people. When you sow a seed once, you will reap a single harvest. When you teach the people, you will reap a hundred harvests”. 7th Century BC Chinese philosopher Guan Zhong
