NAB launches colouring book for elementary students

Raising awareness at early age would contribute greatly towards eradicating corruption

With the formative years of anyone having a lasting impression, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has launched a colouring book for elementary school students.

“What our children are going to be in future is dependent on what we make them today. That is the reason why NAB has taken this initiative of introducing colouring books for primary level children in a bid to reemphasise the bureau’s commitment towards eradication of corruption by involving children through their teachers at an early age,” said NAB Chairman Qamar Zaman Chaudhry while launching the book in a ceremony at the bureau’s headquarters on Wednesday.



Chaudhry added that children are our tomorrow and would grow up to be leaders in different fields of life.

“Colouring books uniquely examine the factors which contribute to various forms of corruption and would go a long way in changing the mindset and perception of our future generation towards corruption,” Chaudhry explained, adding that the books will “greatly help in sensitising the children against ill effects of corruption. “

The colouring books on “Say No To Corruption”, specially designed by the National College of Arts, Lahore for elementary level children and sponsored by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), will be distributed in elementary schools across the country and would be inscribed with its anti-corruption message.
