A Summary Discussion 206 James Socknat, David Ballands, Masuka Sauliere, Philip Cohen, and Sverrir Sigurdsson ANNEX. CONFERENCE PARTICIPANTS 213 INDEX 219 Foreword T he chain of stakeholders associated with educational books is long and impressive. By contrast, our information and knowledge about the educa- tional book publishing industry has been fragmented at best. Huge amounts of funds in the form of aid (loans or grants) are being channeled to support the ulti- mate objective of putting educational books into the hands of end users. Given our limited information, we should now pause and ask the question: Are current processes effective? Do we know enough about the educational book industry to claim that we have helped to promote literate societies? The experience in this regard has been mixed. With the objective of better understanding the chain of actors associated with educational books, stakeholders from different parts of the world were invited to share their book industry experiences at a seminar, September 9-10, 1997, at World Bank Headquarters in Washington, D.C. Invitees included representatives from pub- lishing houses and publishing associations in both industrial and developing coun- tries, as well as donor representativeswith a strong interest in developing publishing capacitlies in developing countries. A small organizing team comprising Sverrir Sigurdsson,Shobhana Sosale,and Philip Cohen worked together over a three-month period to organize the event. The organizing team is grateful to the host of contributors who suggested pre- senters and potential sources of funding to make this event a success: Ingrid Jung (German Foundation for International Development, Germany); Diana Newton (Newton Smith International Ltd., Canada); Brigid O'Connor (British Council, Lagos, Nigeria); Carol Priestley (ADEAWorking Group on Books and Learning Materials); Maria Stridsman (Swedish International Development Agency-SIDA, Sweden); Ian Taylor (British Publishers' Association, United Kingdom); and Carew Treffgarne (U.K.Department for International Development-DFID, and represen- tative of the Associationfor Development of Education in Africa-ADEA-Working Group on Books and Learning Materials). Funding for many external participants and presenters was provided by SIDA (Sweden), the British Council (United Kingdom), the Dag Hammarskj6ld vii Vii EDUCATIONALPUBLISHING IN GLOBALPERSPECTIVE: CAPACITY BUILDING AND TRENDS Foundation, the Soros Foundations (Hungary), Macmillan (United Kingdom), the British Publishers' Association (United Kingdom), French Cooperation (France), and the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). To these organizations, we give you our sincere gratitude for supporting the semi- nar, which would otherwise have been a vastly scaled-down event with lesser impact. To the many others who are too numerous to list here, we owe you our thanks for participating, encouraging, and funding your counterparts to participate. To the publishing professionals who made presentations at the seminar, we appre- ciate your generosity in sharing your experience and knowledge. We share your commitment to providing more books, better books, and affordable books to school children in our client countries. David de Ferranti Vice President Human Development Network World Bank Washington, D.C. Preface H enry Chakava (managingdirector, East African Educational Publishers, and chairman, African Publishing Institute), described the two-day seminar on educational book publishing in a report to the BellagioPublishing Network Newsletter. The seminar, appropriately titled "Understanding the Educational Book Industry," was the brainchild of Sverrir Sigurdsson,a long-time senior opera- tions officer,who has criticallylived through the system, and ably chaired by James Socknat,also a senior World Bank officialwith first-hand experienceof working in most of ithedeveloping world. It attracted 63 participants,including a number of World Bank task managers. External guests included publishing practitioners, government officials, other multilateral donors and inter- mediaries,and United Nations and other developmentagencies. Philip Cohen, WorldBank consultanton textbooks, was at hand as facilitator and recorder. And so, where do we go from here? In the spirit of creating knowledge, the first step toward information dissemination was

Ambos son necesarios para el buen funcionamiento de la industria del libro, pero, con creciente intensidad, el primero es arrinconado por el segundo hasta ser suplantado por él. JUAN GOYTISOLO En EE. UU. hay dos categorías en las librerías: literatura y bestsellers. Mi libro, El ocho, no era una cosa ni otra. [...] Entre la gran literatura y la literatura más popular, [...] mis libros no encajan ni en una categoría ni en la otra. KATHERINE NEVILLE Escribir historias de detectives es escribir literatura ligera, puro entretenimiento. No es como escribir propaganda política o literatura clásica. El género negro, ya se sabe, es una de las formas más populares de entretenimiento que existen. Si además intentas decir algo con ello... Bueno, yo lo he intentado, por supuesto.

    Social Responsibility and Sustainability Report 2019 Social Responsibility and Sustainability Report 2019 Dear Friends: PRISA has moved in a positive direction over the course of fiscal year 2018, in terms of both economic-financial and operational parameters as well as with regard to the strategic reorientation and refocusing of our businesses, as our Chief Executive Officer explains below. The year has also seen improvements to our corporate governance, and here, first of all, I would like to pay tribute to the per- son who served as our Chairman over the past year, Manuel Polanco. Our Board of Directors and its committees have been extremely active over the year, and we have been diligent in adopting their decisions. We believe the results have been positive, as you too will see in the wide-ranging information made public by the Company on this matter. We still have some way to go and we will forge ahead with the same determination as before. Our goal is to achieve the very best governance standards. We don’t do this merely to formally comply with regulatory frameworks or recommendations of best practice – though laudable in itself – but because of our conviction that we can thereby ensure that the Board best fulfills its central mission: to enable PRISA to pursue an ambitious business project, one that has great future potential and is that sustainable over time; and one that can attract, motivate and retain the talent necessary to make this a reality. Javier Monzón PRISA has enormous potential to generate value for its shareholders, for its professionals Chairman of PRISA and for all those we serve with our activity: educational communities, students and their «Our goal is to achieve families, readers and listeners, promoters and protagonists of cultural and social change the very best governance and, more broadly speaking, the general public and the societies where we operate.
