Onitsha, Anambra State, facilitating a reading session and donating copies of AbleBooks storybooks to the school.
Students engaged directly with the books during the session, working through the stories and connecting with characters that reflect their own experiences as deaf children. The donated copies were left with the school to ensure students could continue reading independently long after the visit ended.
Onitsha is one of the most densely populated cities in Southeast Nigeria, yet deaf children in the region have had limited access to inclusive learning materials. Visits like this one are part of AbleBooks' broader effort to ensure that geography is never a barrier to representation. Every deaf child in Nigeria, whether in a major city or a rural community, deserves to find themselves in a book.
