World Book Day in La Pauquilla, Cachachi

The BRIE (Rural Libraries in Schools) at the “Bicentenario” Educational Institution in the community of La Pauquilla, in Cachachi, Cajabamba, celebrated World Book and Copyright Day on 23 April in a very special way. We would like to share this wonderful experience with you, as recounted by its headteacher, Mr José Noé Hoyos Rodríguez, whilst also commending the efforts of this educational community to promote literature, reading and the value of books.


Today, 23 April, at the “Bicentenario La Pauquilla” Educational Institution, we marked a significant day for World Book Day, reaffirming our commitment to reading as a tool for transformation in a rural context. Students and teachers actively participated in various activities that fostered a love of books, critical thinking and creative expression.

In particular, the dramatised reading of “Paco Yunque” by César Abraham Vallejo Mendoza aroused great interest and emotion among those present, prompting reflection on justice, empathy and social reality through the lens of literature. These experiences reinforce the role of Rural Libraries in Educational Institutions (BRIE) as vibrant spaces for learning, gathering and the development of citizenship.
