The Early Grade Reading Activity (EGRA) is a USAID activity that aims to improve the reading performance of Malawian learners in standards 1-3 through technical assistance to and collaboration with the Ministry of Education Science and Technology (MoEST). One of EGRA’s key cross-cutting goals is to improve the quality of literacy instruction available to learners with disabilities. The Braille Cup Malawi brings together a unique combination of partners, assets, and competencies aimed at improving reading skills and scores among visually impaired children in primary schools in the EGRA target districts. EGRA’s component of public-private partnerships (PPP) helps build alliances with the private sector to leverage cash and in-kind resources to help increase resources for the Braille Cup. The organization of the contest is done in a collaborative manner.
