Popis: In this chapter, we present our study’s community case developed in the Indo-Fijian rural community of Dovubaravi. The chapter begins with an introduction to the participating children of Dovubaravi, followed by accounts of Dovubaravi findings for each of our study’s four research questions: (1) What are the literacy development contexts for preschool children in Dovubaravi? (2) What are the enablers and constraints that impact Dovubaravi’s community capacity to support their preschool children’s literacy learning? (3) What local resources and strategies can be used to foster preschool children’s literacy in Dovubaravi? (4) What strategies are effective in developing Dovubaravi’s capacity to support preschool children’s literacy development in their home languages and English?
