Baobabooks launches Spanish language version of creativity platform for classroom-based and distance learning, increasing its potential reach to two billion people

Baobabooks Education Sàrl today announced that it has added Spanish as a language that can be used on its platform. Baobabooks is purpose built to support children, teens and young adults to write, illustrate and publish their own books. This is the third language supported on the digital engagement website, following the release of the French and English language versions earlier in January.

"Adding Spanish language to our platform, in addition to French and English, allows us to be relevant to approximately 2 billion people around the planet. We are committed to supporting the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goal of making inclusive and equitable quality education available for all."

Spanish is the fourth most spoken language worldwide with 538 million speakers and is the official language in 21 countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, Spain, Uruguay and Venezuela.

Baobabooks is comprised of a diverse team of social impact visionaries from the education, technology and business segments who are bringing their skills and experience together to enhance creativity in young people via the positive use of technology.
