INTERNATIONAL LITERACY DAY

The importance of literacy


September 8 was proclaimed as International Literacy Day (ILD) at the 14th session of UNESCO’s General Conference on 26 October 1966. 

Since 1967, International Literacy Day (ILD) celebrations have taken place annually around the world to remind the public of the importance of literacy as a matter of dignity and human rights, and to advance the literacy agenda towards a more literate and sustainable society. 

Despite progress made, literacy challenges persist, and at the same time the demands for skills required for work, evolve rapidly.
