#GivingTuesday 2022



The Children's Literature Association (ChLA) International Committee is participating in #GivingTuesday today, the global day of unity and giving. Last year, efforts resulted in nearly $4,000.00 in donations, and we hope to exceed that amount this year! Please consider supporting us again (or for the first time), by donating to ChLA.


Our committee actively pursues the internationalization of North American children's literature research. We are grateful for the support of our contributors, readers, and participants in opening up more space for scholars and students of youth literature around the world through the blog and scholarly resources.


We are launching an online Global South Speaker Series with the generous support of our Board Liaison Lara Saguisag, Georgiou Chair in Children's Literature and Literacy Department of Teaching and Learning at NYU. The Series is a collaboration between NYU and ChLA, and we appreciate the initiative of Lara, our International Committee Chair Nithya Sivashankar, and all others involved.


In past years, the generous support of our donors has helped the International Committee bring world-renowned authors and distinguished scholars such as Patrice Lawrence (2019 BAME Literature from the UK), Ute Dettmar (2018 Germany), Luis Cabrera Delgado (2017 Cuba), Fumiko Ganzenmueller (2016 Japan), and Rio Alma (2012 The Philippines) to ChLA conferences in the USA. Help us continue this global dialogue that responds to contemporary issues and discourses in children’s literature.
