Mission Statement
CODE is a Canadian NGO with 61 years of experience advancing literacy and learning around the world. Our mission is to improve student outcomes by increasing access to qualified teachers and high quality books.
About This Cause
CODE is Canada's leading international development agency uniquely focused on advancing literacy and education in some of the neediest countries in Africa. By acting to establish and ignite engaging learning environments through the development and publication of locally authored and illustrated children's books, training teachers and teacher-librarians, resourcing libraries as well as distributing significant numbers of high-quality reading materials, CODE focuses on inspiring young minds to improve their literacy and comprehension with the hope that they become critical thinkers, problem-solvers and life-long learners. CODE effects change by working in partnership with local in-country organizations who share our vision and values and ensure the sustainability of our programs. We work closely with the Ministries of Education, parent-teacher associations and local community leaders to implement programs that are locally owned and supported. CODE is based in Ottawa with a staff of 23. CODE currently works in Liberia, Ghana, Mozambique, Sierra Leone and Malawi.
