The Living Library
1. From the mid 40's to the 70's, many big cities in Brazil
expanded because of internal migrations. During those years,
with the intensification of social problems, many nongovernmental organizations were created and many existing
Community Centers increased their activities to provide nonformal education for children and adolescents after school
hours.
2. The "Living Library" is a two-year project that aims at
making the act of reading and writing as an everyday activity
for poor children and their teachers. This would mean fewer
failures in elementary school and more children learning about their reality and how to change it.
These "libraries" are being implanted in Community Centers in charge of children and adolescents
living in the poor districts of the peripheral area of the big cities, where huge slums and acute
social problems are concentrated. To achieve its objective the Project team provides personal
development for the community teachers by preparing them to work with books and reading
activities in the context of poverty and deprivation of their institutions. Each library is unique,
taking into account the needs and the culture of the community where it is located.
3. Forty-four institutions took part in the selective process. Among those, 10 were chosen to
receive the library: two in Brasília and eight in São Paulo. Fourteen community teachers went
through a 44 hour training program. The first 10 libraries received 4,000 books directly benefiting
2,500 children and adolescents.
4. The first 10 libraries were implanted and are open to the community. They attend institutions
that look after street children from slums in the suburbs, children living in poor houses downtown,
children living in shelters, who have no parents or are temporarily separated from them.
