Publishing Houses and NGOs producing story books for children in the Arabic language are invited to nominate titles to be included in the 101 Books Exhibition organised by the Anna Lindh Foundation for the second consecutive year.

A press release said the 101 Books Exhibition, to take place during the 2010- 2011 school year, is organised in the framework of the Anna Lindh’s Arab Children Literature programme. The objective of the exhibition is to provide a broad audience of children in the Arab world with access to quality story books recently published and written in Arabic.

The participating Publishing Houses and NGOs should be a legally registered organization or enterprise. Submitted books will be screened and evaluated by a committee which will select the 101 best titles to be presented during the exhibition. In addition, local exhibitions will also be organised in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine and Syria and will tour from city to city.

The deadline for nominations is 1 July 2010.

The Anna Lindh Foundation for the Dialogue between Cultures is a €7 million EU-funded project which aims at bringing people and organisations of the region closer and promoting dialogue, by offering them opportunities to work together on projects in the fields of culture, education, science, human rights, sustainable development, the empowerment of women and the arts. The Foundation is the first institution to be jointly created and co-financed by all member countries of the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership.
