    The proven impact of Correctbook

    We already helped more than 600.000 children with erasable writing material so far. But this erasable writing material is just the start of it all. Because the use of this material is the key factor in the battle against illiteracy. Research has shown that the use of the erasable writing material of Correctbook has positive outcomes. Read further to discover it all. 

    The material

    The erasable writing material received by the kids in developing areas is not exactly the same as the writing material you buy. The notebook they receive has a closed ring binder, this makes sure the kids cannot lose pages. Smart right? This notebook is also water resistant and can endure very harsh conditions as presented by arid and marginalized areas. So, the package they receive consists of this special Correctbook, a pen and an ink station. This ink station is shared among 7 to 8 children.

    The situation in Malawi

    Malawi is located in the southeast African region, sharing its borders with Mozambique to the South, Zambia to the West and Tanzania to the North. It’s a small country, compared to other African countries. Malawi is also known as the “warm heart of Africa”, and accurately so. Malawi’s people are jovial, welcoming and peaceful, making you feel entirely welcome and at ease in their lovely country. Like in many developing countries, most public schools in Malawi are in a sorry state. This is evidenced by the dilapidated infrastructure and the deplorable learning conditions. Most school-going children lack basic needs including reading and writing materials. This is a major reason why children lack the motivation to go back to school. Retaining children in schools in Malawi is a major challenge.
