On April 14, AIDGLOBAL will receive 20 copies of the book “A Formiga Juju na Cidade das Papaias”, a project to promote reading in Mozambique, aimed at schools on the outskirts and institutions that support vulnerable children. The children's story, which will expand the library of the Muxu-quete Primary School and the other libraries in the Chibuto District School Library Network, is part of the promotion of the values of Education for Development, namely through awareness of environmental preservation. The book, by Cristina Pereira, with illustrations by Walter Zand and design by Mia Temporário, deals with the importance of the sun and water for the balance of the planet, making it a valuable teaching resource for Mozambican schools.
