Bangladesh – Children’s books on traditional games launched by Unesco, The Asia Foundation, in print and digital formats

In a move somewhat at odds with standard publishing practice in Bangladesh, e-book versions of the 11 books are publicly available free of charge on The Asia Foundation’s Let’s Read’s Digital library.

In a joint collaboration, The Asia Foundation and Unesco Dhaka Office held a virtual launching event and panel discussion on their initiative for producing children’s books on traditional games.

11 books have been published under the theme of ‘”Let’s Read about Heritage’, with content developed by “reputed children’s book writers and illustrators”, and approved by the National Curriculum and Textbook Board and the Bangladesh National Commission for Unesco.
