Abstract | Family literacy is a form of intergenerational learning that is based on the fundamental connection and interaction between the education of children, young people and adults. The family--in its broader sense--builds the foundation for lifelong learning. This book was published to help promote literacy by raising the understanding and awareness of family literacy in Africa. It shows that a variety of experiences with regard to this concept exist in this region and will help to bring the different stakeholders together, enter into dialogue and chart a new course of action. It will inform practitioners, policymakers and funders about a concept the editors believe is effective, even if often more expensive than "traditional" adult literacy programmes with however the added value of not only reaching children and adults but also resulting in more effective and sustainable programmes.
