Mobile Library

 

According to UNESCO data, the reading interest level among the Indonesian population is only 0.001 percent—meaning just one in 1,000 people reads regularly.

Data from Statistics Indonesia (BPS) from 2020 also indicates that only about 10% of the population enjoys reading books, rather than merely reading short messages or social media content.

The Foundation for Mother and Child Health Indonesia, known locally as Yayasan Balita Sehat, is committed to providing access to books, not only for the children attending our Early Learning Centres, but also the children living in their wider communities.

We operate 1 library in PAUD Sehat Ceria Bojonggede and 1 mobile library which brings books to the children in the remote and rural area we serve in Southwest Sumba, NTT.
