Challenge for families in UAE: How many books can you read in a month?
Staff Report/Dubai
March 1 marks the beginning of the Month of Reading in the UAE.
UAE residents on Monday reported noticing their mobile network names had been changed to “UAE Reads”. That’s because March 1 marks the beginning of the Month of Reading in the UAE, an annual initiative to foster a better culture of reading among citizens and residents alike.
Several events from workshops to seminars and more are being organised across the country under this year’s theme: ‘My Family Reads’.
The Month of Reading 2021 initiative has been designed to enhance the role of parents in instilling a love of reading in their children, highlighting its vital role in early childhood development.
