The Book Publishers Association of Malawi (BPAM) was established in 1996 when publishing houses in the country felt the need to have an association to co-ordinate issues related to the book industry to contribute towards improving literacy level in Malawi and to promote the culture of reading amongst youths as the future leaders of tomorrow. The association has legible membership base of 19 nationwide and for the past 8 (eight) years BPAM benefited from the Cultural Support Scheme (CSS) project to implement capacity building interventions and out-reach programs. Some of the activities previously implemented include training seminars to enhance their members skills in publishing and marketing and establishment of reading circles aimed at improving the reading culture of the masses improving reading culture.
