A public library with a difference in Lusaka

A deprived neighbourhood in Lusaka in a community faced with a high unemployment rate and with many children unable to go to school, Lubuto Library, built in the traditional huts style in the shape of Insaka, has become a haven for the more than 2000 children who pass through its doors each week.

Focus on Africa's Bola Mosuro visited Garden Township and met Daniel, a young boy who tells her life could have been different without the library.
