Themed “Free to Read,” the program encouraged inmates to prioritize education and personal development, reinforcing that growth and achievement remain possible regardless of circumstance.

Inmates also had the opportunity to undertake a Read Aloud session.

The Acting Executive Director, Mr. Alhassan Betintiche Ziblim and his delegation reaffirmed the Authority’s commitment to supporting inmates on their educational journey of reformation. As part of the visit, the team assessed the prison’s library facilities and donated a collection of reading resources to strengthen its holdings and improve access for inmates.

Nkawkaw Library proudly marked International Book and Copyright Day with an engaging and impactful program for selected schools within the municipality.

The session was led by Ms. Justine Perfect Alorwu, Founder of ESEC Coaching and a volunteer with the Ghana Association of Writers, in collaboration with Nkawkaw Library.

Pupils were taken through:
📚 The power of reading in shaping careers
🧭 Career discovery activities using guided career texts
©️ A simplified understanding of copyright and why it matters

It was inspiring to see young minds actively participate, ask questions, and begin to see the connection between reading, creativity, and their future paths.

We remain committed to nurturing a culture of reading, creativity, and responsible use of knowledge among our young learners.
