Advantage Book Club
A self-development reading circle that gives young people access to proven, influential books often missing from formal education.
UgandaAugust 2022Youth participants across Uganda
Launched in August 2022, the Advantage Book Club (ABC) was created for young people who want to seek relevant knowledge to harness their full potential. In a system whose capacity to provide the necessary education for accelerated development is limited, ABC gives participants access to proven and influential self-development books.
This opens doors for young people who would otherwise not have access to this genre. Through reading, discussion and reflection, members build habits of lifelong learning.
