NAL'IBALI CAMPAIGN

Nal’ibali is a campaign based on the fact that reading can be an important tool to use for a quality education in South Africa. It promotes the culture of reading within the children of the community.  To read should be a joy not a punishment .
Pupils of grade 4 between the age of 9-10 years- old, 75% of them are not able to read for meanings, it means they don't comprehend what they are reading. Nal'ibali gives a huge value in reading in your mother tongue language. 
We were joined by Bulelani and Monica, both from Nal'ibali to talk more about their campaign.
In general, people don't read for themselves, the culture of reading is left at the back seat and our children are the most to suffer from this situation because they are still learning. 
Nal'ibali wants parents to read for the children, no matter how busy your life is, it takes only 15 minutes a day to read aloud to your children in order to increase their sense of imagination. When a parent tends to read a lot for his/her child, in the long run the child will get the pleasure of reading by him/herself and later on to start writing..
They give a platform to the community through reading clubs where kids come to play, to read, to learn how to be able to create their own story. It is advised to bring as many children as you can to the reading clubs.
On the 1 February 2019, The World Read Aloud Day will occur, the aim is to reach 1.5 millions of children to read stories aloud for. Basically,every year, on this day, people all around the globe read aloud together and plead literacy as a human right to everyone.
