Text:
Afaf Raed from Palestine was the winner of the Second
edition of the Arab Reading Challenge. Afaf aged 17 who
is in grade 12 at the Alberta High School; she was among
4 million participants in Palestine who managed to read
50 Arabic books a year. She takes home a $150.000 cash
prize, $100.000 of which will go to her university
education and $50.000 to her family for their
encouragement.

When a judge asked her before winning the prize about the reasons why she reads, she
replied: “You ask me why I read? but, I ask you why not to read? Reading adds
flavour to our life and enrich our thoughts and minds. It is a lifestyle. Only by
reading and words, we can solve the society’s problems”. She told the judging panel.
Afaf thanked her family and people who supported her during her journey in this
challenge. « I want to become scientist scholar. I plan to study Medicine in the
future. I dedicated this win to AL- Quds and to my beloved country Palestine ».
