“I am both honored and humbled to be accepting this award on behalf of the Room to Read team. We will celebrate for one day, and then we will go right back to work. We’re all too aware that over 250 million children around the world are not learning. The majority live in poor countries, and 2/3 are girls... This award gives all of Room to Read’s employees and volunteers additional motivation. Today – we celebrate. Tomorrow, we roll up our sleeves and get back to work. We wish to tell all of the world’s children – you were born in the right place, at the right time, because we were there for you, Sweden was there for you, and those who won the lottery of life did not forget our little brothers and sisters - John Wood accepts Honorary Award at #WorldsChildrensPrize In the photo: John Wood with the Queen of Sweden, fellow Worlds Childrens Prize Laureate Indira Ranamagar, WCP winner Malala Yousafzai, and the WCP Child Jury.
