Read@Home: Expanding children’s opportunities to read

The World Bank launched in 2020 to promote reading and learning in homes, schools and communities, and address critical supply chain challenges that constrain children’s opportunities to read. Read@Home has supported 18 countries to date and developed a suite of practical tools, materials and guidance to inform programming.
