Welcome to CODE
Celebrating 50 Years of Development through Education
If you can read and write, you can learn to do, and be, anything. That’s the idea behind CODE.
We work with local organizations in developing countries to empower children to learn. In so doing, we deliver an essential, sustainable development solution that endures. Our programs support libraries and teacher training as well as national and local book publishing in about 20 languages in Africa and the Caribbean.

Testimonial
“As a correspondent, in more than sixty years of journalism traveling the world, I have seen at first hand the rich value of learning to read and write. It truly is the root of a participatory society. There is simply no more fulfilling cause than that of literacy.”
Knowlton Nash, Chair of CODE's Advisory Council
