· Kai India set up Children Libraries in two schools in Imphal with an objective to develop sustained reading habit among children and community empowerment.
New Delhi/Imphal: As part of the community empowerment initiative, Kai India, the Indian arm of the legendary 114 years old Japanese group – KAI, supported libraries in two schools of Imphal, the capital of Manipur.
The community empowerment program called Kai India Children Library Program focuses on the development of sustained reading habit among school children. Under this program, Kai India set up library corners with over 500 books each in two schools namely Eastern Ideal High School, Imphal East and Keishamthong High School, Imphal West.
As part of the community development initiative, Kai India supported two schools in building and operating libraries to enable & support students in developing interest in reading. These efforts are few steps contributing to our dream of 100% literacy & promoted higher education levels in India. This annual book and library engagement plan has been specially crafted for children, and as well as for teachers which includes reading activities like Read-Aloud for children and orientation program for teachers focusing on the overall operations and activities related to library.
“Kai India Children Library program aims to provide access to children in government schools to high quality children literature as well as provide support for building sustained reading habit. KAI India firmly believe that sustained reading habit and exposure to fine literature goes a long way in empowering community and building successful future of children. KAI India would also be providing few Japanese books(English language) to expose children of rich Japanese culture,” said Mr Rajesh U Pandya, Managing Director, KAI India.
On selection of Manipur as the state of first library program roll-out, Mr Pandya informed that “Kai India’s mission to promote education in the underserved parts of India especially Manipur emerged from the belief that the development of children and community starts with early and quality education coupled with the fact that the lesser represented regions like Manipur has huge untapped potential which needs special attention”.
