Welcome to CBP - Tanzania |
The Children's Book Project for Tanzania (CBP) was started in 1991 in response to Tanzania's acute shortage of books for children, and the lack of adequate skills among Book Sector personnel to produce these reading materials. CBP set out to assist with the production and distribution of relevant reading materials and to encourage and support indigenous authorship.
The Project has been supported, at different periods, by international donor organizations with interest in education and books. These include CODE (the initiator of the project), Sida,
THE NETHERLANDS GOVERNMENT
CANADA FUND
DANIDA
HIVOS
BRITISH COUNCIL
AGA KHAN FOUNDATION and the INTERNATIONAL READING ASSOCIATION.
A number of Local organizations have also supported specific activities organized by the Project. These include the NATIONAL INSURANCE CORPORATION, NATIONAL BANK OF COMMERCE AND CELTEL TANZANIA LIMITED.
