Under Temer, schools will no longer receive literature books.
The poorly rated and worn-out administration of Michel Temer (PMDB) also affects investment in education; the federal government will go at least four years without delivering new literature books to libraries in Brazilian public schools; between 2000 and 2014, almost 230 million copies were distributed, at an average cost of R$ 3,80; the books were distributed by the National School Library Program (PNBE), which invested R$ 891 million in purchases during the same period.
247 - Michel Temer's (PMDB) poorly rated and unpopular administration is also affecting investment in education. The federal government will go at least four years without delivering new literature books to Brazilian public school libraries.
The last shipment of books made by the Ministry of Education (MEC) to the entire network occurred in 2014. From that year onwards, the program that guaranteed the purchase and delivery was no longer implemented. The alternative proposed by the federal government will only be able to send new books starting in 2019, according to a G1 news article.
Between 2000 and 2014, nearly 230 million copies were distributed, at an average cost of R$ 3,80. The books were distributed by the National School Library Program (PNBE), which invested R$ 891 million in purchases during the same period. This amount represented, on average, R$ 68,5 million per year in renewing collections for students of all years of basic education (preschool, elementary, and high school).
