Global Read Webinar Series

Once a month in the spring, the World Area Book Awards (Américas Award, Africana Book Award, Freeman Book Award, Middle East Book Award, and the South Asia Book Award) sponsor a 60 minute webinar on a book recognized by one of the awards.

Each webinar features a presentation by an award-winning author with discussion on how to incorporate multicultural literature into the classroom. Be sure to join the conversation with our webinar hashtag #2023ReadingAcrossCultures.

All sessions are free and open to the public. All times listed refer to Eastern Standard Time (EST).  

All webinars begin at 7:00 PM EST unless otherwise noted.

Check out the list of all World Area Book Award winners over time.
