What is World Kid Lit?

World Kid Lit is a non-profit that aims to bring diverse, inclusive, global literature into the hands and onto the bookshelves of young people.

We believe in the power of reading to foster anti-racism, inclusivity and empathy. We believe in the power of world kid lit (world literature for young people) to broaden horizons and promote greater understanding between cultures.

We are a growing community working in many ways to raise the profile of world literature for young people in the media, arts and education landscapes. Our community brings together literature and literacy advocates, librarians and educators, translators and children’s publishing professionals from every continent of the globe!

As a non-profit community organisation, all funds raised are invested in our core work of improving awareness of andaccess to international literature for young people. We welcome donations of any size!

World Kid Lit is a Community Interest Company (CIC), registered in the UK but working with partners worldwide. UK Company number 15765635
