Education systems around the world are recovering from learning loss due to the pandemic. The Global Book Alliance (GBA) continues to promote best practices in order to ensure children have access to quality reading materials in languages they use and understand. The GBA works to transform the lives of millions of children in developing countries by working with partners to identify, promote, and support innovations, best practices, and policies that will change the way books are created, procured, and provided. In 2022, the GBA had a major impact on book supply chains and reading materials globally.

In this webinar, presenters cover findings from a USAID-commissioned global cost study on the costs of books and the drivers behind these costs, and 10 (relatively) easy ways to improve book procurement and lower costs. The webinar includes a look at new guidance and tools from the World Bank to support practitioners through every stage of the process, from design to printing to distribution to use.
