Each year September 8th marks UNESCO’s International Literacy day, raising awareness globally on the issues surrounding adult and child literacy. First held in 1966 and now part of the UN’s sustainable development goals program adopted in 2015, International Literacy day highlights the changes and improvements being made worldwide in literacy development.
International Literacy Day 2020 focuses on “Literacy teaching and learning in the COVID-19 crisis and beyond,” especially on the role of educators and changing pedagogies. The theme highlights literacy learning in a lifelong learning perspective, and therefore, mainly focuses on youth and adults.
UNESCO has been central to improving global literacy since 1946 and promotes International Literacy day in partnership with governments, charities, local communities and experts in the field worldwide. Using themes and programs the day aims to turn attention on literacy in all its forms in a changing world. Recognising literacy encompasses more than the written word in societies today the theme for 2017 was Literacy in the Digital World’.
The International Literacy Day is celebrated on 8th September every year throughout the world. On this day, in the year 1965 the World Congress of Ministers of Education met in Tehran for the first time to discuss the programme of education at the international level. The UNESCO in its 14th Session in November, 1966, declared 8th September as the International Literacy Day. Since then, ILD is celebrated on 8th September every year by most of the member countries.
Objectives
The key aspect of the observance of ILD is to mobilize public opinion in favour of struggle against illiteracy. ILD is a forum to disseminate information on literacy and raise the public awareness and the significance of literacy for individual and national development. It is an occasion to mark achievements and reflect on ways to counter remaining challenges for the promotion of literacy as an integral part of lifelong learning within and beyond the 2030 Education Agenda.
International Literacy Day (ILD) 2020
Literacy is part of the right to education and a means to enjoy other economic, social and cultural rights. It is also central to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), in particular SDG4 on ensuring inclusive, quality, and equitable education and promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all (UN, 2015). Literacy empowers individuals and expands their capabilities to effectively engage in their societies.
However, despite the steady progress made, our world is still home to at least 750 million adults and young people who lack basic literacy skills (UIS and GEM Report Team, 2019). In addition, the progress has been uneven across countries and populations. In relation to young people, more than 617 million children and adolescents are not achieving minimum proficiency levels in reading and mathematics (UIS, 2017b). On the current trend, more than half of primary and secondary school age children will leave school without the minimum literacy skills they should achieve. In addition, literacy skills are both context-specific and constantly evolving. In an increasingly technological and information-rich environment, a ‘traditionally’ literate person is not necessarily fully equipped to solve a life or work problem.
Multilingualism is a world-wide phenomenon in both physical and digital spaces due to greater human mobility, digitalization and globalization. Its forms and patterns have also changed. Being literate in a lingua franca may enhance a person’s employability and socio-political status, while mastering a minority language as the mother or first language helps develop socio-cultural identities and well-being.
International Literacy Day is a day to remind world leaders, influencers and the general public of the current status of adult literacy and learning. UNESCO has used the phrase Literacy is the best remedy in its banners seeing literacy as key to the right for all to an education. In 2015 the UN adopted its Sustainable Development goals to mobilise efforts to eradicate poverty and inequalities across the world, of which improving literacy rates is an integral element.
In conjunction with International Literacy day, UNESCO also announces its International Literacy awards. A prestigious prize recognising excellence and innovation, submissions will be on Literacy and skills development, the theme for 2018. With International Literacy Day the awards help in promoting awareness of the importance and relevance of literacy and adult learning.
COVID-19 crisis and beyond
International Literacy Day 2020 focuses on “Literacy teaching and learning in the COVID-19 crisis and beyond,” especially on the role of educators and changing pedagogies. The theme highlights literacy learning in a lifelong learning perspective, and therefore, mainly focuses on youth and adults. The recent Covid-19 crisis has been a stark reminder of the existing gap between policy discourse and reality: a gap that already existed in the pre-COVID-19 era and negatively affects the learning of youth and adults, who have no or low literacy skills, and therefore, tend to face multiple disadvantages. During COVID-19, in many countries, adult literacy programmes were absent in the initial education response plans, so most adult literacy programmes that did exist were suspended, with just a few courses continuing virtually, through TV and radio, or in open air spaces. What is the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on youth and adult literacy educators and teaching and learning? What are the lessons learnt? How can we effectively position youth and adult literacy learning in global and national responses and in strategies for the recovery and resilience-building phase?
By exploring these questions, International Literacy Day 2020 provides an opportunity to reflect on and discuss how innovative and effective pedagogies and teaching methodologies can be used in youth and adult literacy programmes to face the pandemic and beyond. The Day will also give an opportunity to analyse the role of educators, as well as formulate effective policies, systems, governance and measures that can support educators and learning.
Online Events
The global celebrations of International Literacy Day on 8 September 2020 will be composed of two virtual meetings:
Meeting on ‘Literacy teaching and learning in the COVID-19 crisis and beyond: the role of educators and changing pedagogies’ (13:30-15:30 in Paris time)
Meeting on the Laureates of the UNESCO International Literacy Prizes 2020 (16:00-17:00 in Paris time).
Both meetings will be accessible by registering through Zoom.
Background
The 8th of September was proclaimed International Literacy Day by UNESCO in 1966 to remind the international community of the importance of literacy for individuals, communities and societies, and the need for intensified efforts towards more literate societies. The issue of literacy is a key component of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals and the UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
The UN's Sustainable Development Agenda, adopted by world leaders in September 2015, promotes universal access to quality education and learning opportunities throughout people’s lives. Sustainable Development Goal 4 has as one of its targets ensuring all young people achieve literacy and numeracy and that adults, who lack these skills are given the opportunity to acquire them.
Did you know?
773 million adults and young people lack basic literacy skills;
617 million children and adolescents are not achieving minimum proficiency levels in reading and mathematics;
During the initial phase of the pandemic, schools were closed disrupting the education of 62.3 per cent of the world’s student population of 1.09 billion;
Adult literacy and education were absent in initial education response plans, therefore many youth and adults with no or low literacy skills have had limited access to life-saving information.
New literacy strategy for youth and adults
The new five-year UNESCO Strategy for Youth and Adult Literacy (2020-2025) has four strategic priority areas:
Developing national literacy policies and strategies;
Addressing the learning needs of disadvantaged groups, particularly women and girls;
Leveraging digital technologies to expand access and improve learning outcomes;
Monitoring progress and assessing literacy skills and programmes.
