FAVL's Kate Parry in Uganda's Daily Monitor

Kabubbu Development Project is to improve literacy among orphans and needy children. The project director, Mr Enock Kagoda says their organisation is currently sponsoring almost 1,000 students in primary and secondary schools. Kagoda revealed to Daily Monitor that the project has also helped residents in Gayaza to access safe drinking water, a library and health services with the help of British charity Quicken Trust. At a workshop for libraries held at Kabubbu Resort and Conference Centre, Prof Kate Parry, the chairperson of Uganda Community Libraries Association, said that the reading culture in Uganda is improving.  "We can have more people read if we make sure that books are available to them," Prof Parry said on Thursday, January 28. She told people to develop a reading culture by encouraging each other to read. Prof Parry said the best way to teach children how to read is by example.
