Nal'ibali is a reading-for-enjoyment campaign that sparks children's potential through storytelling and reading.
  • Nal'ibali aims to spark a love of stories, build language and literacy skills, and promote a lifelong reading culture in homes, schools, and communities across South Africa. Our reading-for-enjoyment campaign encourages the use of home languages to nurture and strengthen a reading culture in children as home language is transparent, easy to learn, and the first language with which children connect, allowing them to socialise and make sense of the world around them.
Nal'ibali needs your help to continue providing reading materials for children in their mother tongue, facilitate literacy training workshops to equip various communities, and drive initiatives to instill a love of reading among South African children.

  • WATCH: Did you know that Nal'ibali trained 1,105 early childhood development (ECD) practitioners in early childhood literacy through close collaboration with community-based ECDs and officials within the Department of Basic Education in 2024?

Ivy Mlambo, an Early Childhood Development practitioner from Ga-Molepo, Limpopo, shares how Nal'ibali empowered her through training, reading materials for children, and mentorship.
