Literacy Worldwide and Its Problems
Literacy Worldwide and Its Problems
Literacy is the floor that wider education is built on, and reaching it for a whole population is harder than it sounds. This chapter looks at who actually delivers universal literacy when state schools cannot do it alone, how literacy is distributed and where the gaps sit, and the problems that keep literacy rates low even after fees are waived and laws are passed.
Why state schools fell short, how private schools filled the gap, and what UNESCO does.
World literacy rates, the gender gap, and why a few countries hold most of the shortfall.
Gender gaps, dropout, poverty and hidden costs, thin budgets, and weak awareness.
