The Foundation is donating the books in support of the UAEBBY’s Children in Crisis programme, which aims to provide books for children whose lives have been disrupted by war, civil unrest or natural disaster, in addition to children with special needs, all over the world.
They will be allocated to children in the Gaza Strip in Palestine, with the aim of benefiting culturally marginalised children by supporting reading culture through the provision of the necessary books to children, training courses to reading professionals, and by promoting the importance of reading among children.
Sheikha Bodour lauded this humanitarian initiative by the Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Foundation. She said that the difficult living conditions of children in unstable or war torn countries should not jeopardise their right to have access to reading and knowledge or to develop a culture of reading, adding that developing children’s awareness and knowledge through reading will help them to overcome the challenges they may face as a result of their circumstances.”
