International Literacy Day

Celebration of International Literacy Day

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

International Literacy Day is celebrated every year on 8th September to highlight the importance of literacy for individuals and the societies as well as the need for augmented efforts towards more literate societies. The basic form of literacy is being able to read and write. Reading promotes literacy and is a simple way to keep students’ minds stimulated and focused. It also helps in the development of skills like creative and analytical thinking.

THEME:

"Literacy teaching and learning in the COVID-19 crisis and beyond with a focus on the role of educators and changing pedagogies "

History : 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 with at least 773 million adults worldwide lacking basic literacy skills today.
