The UAEBBY is the national section of the International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY) in the United Arab Emirates. Founded in Switzerland in 1953, IBBY is a global network of individuals from over 81 countries who share a commitment to fostering a love of reading among children through books.
In 2010, the UAEBBY was established as a non-profit, non-governmental organization after the United Arab Emirates was accepted as a member of IBBY. This achievement was made possible through the dedicated efforts of Bodour Al Qasimi, the Founder/CEO of Kalimat Publishing House and the Patron of the UAEBBY.
The UAEBBY's primary objective is to cultivate the children's book industry in the Arab Region, encourage a reading culture among children, and enhance the capabilities of professionals in the field of children's literature. By achieving these goals, the UAEBBY seeks to contribute to the holistic development of young readers, inspire their creativity and imagination, and foster a lifelong love of reading.
