Nal’ibali promotes reading and writing in home languages and aims to encourage and nurture extant reading practices in homes and organisations which can, and do, contribute to literacy development. The campaign would like to see reading and writing rooted in children’s daily lives and for South Africa to become a nation of readers and story-tellers.
In 2018, Nal’ibali commissioned JET Education Services to undertake a formative evaluation to ascertain the effectiveness of the Nal’ibali bilingual reading for enjoyment supplement. The evaluation examined the following thematic areas: targeting; use; appropriateness: quality; messaging; and cost effectiveness in relation to the different distribution strategies used.
The formative evaluation was undertaken to inform and guide improvement of the campaign and specifically the bilingual supplements.
