Pratham and Pratham Books Over ten years since the start of its operations in the slums of Mumbai in 1994, the Pratham Education Initiative (www.pratham.org) has reached over a million children with its pre-school, in-school and out-of-school programmes that aim to ensure that every child is in school and learning well. Pratham’s activities have spread to 13 states in India with cooperation and assistance from local government, leading corporate houses and local citizens. All of Pratham’s programme models are simple to implement, replicable, scalable and geographically comprehensive so as to ensure universal primary education for every child in India in the years to come. Pratham Books is a not-for-profit trust that seeks to publish high-quality books for children at a affordable cost in multiple Indian languages. Pratham Books is trying to create a shift in the paradigm for publishing children’s books in India. The low cost model proves that children’s literature can be attractive and affordable and therefore more accessible. Read India Books is an imprint of Pratham Books and is the first of several publishing brands that we hope to create. Over the next one year Pratham Books will publish an additional 100 children’s book titles under the Read India brand. |
