Abstract
The program aims to support the national READ Program effort to address the learning needs of 15 million primary grade students in seven Ethiopian languages. READ CO is implemented by Save the Children and its regional NGO partners. The program focuses on increasing access to reading materials, providing opportunities for children to practice reading, and strengthening parental and community engagement in support of children's learning to read. The initiative supports the development of reading materials, training of teachers, and community outreach activities. The program also aims to improve the quality of education and increase the number of children who can read and write.
