International Literacy Day is on every September 8, Children, Teachers, and Literacy Specialists from Nigeria are celebrating by advocating for quality, equitable, and inclusive education for all.

Learning to read in your early years is a critical stage to reaching your full potential.
This year’s International Literacy Day will be celebrated worldwide under the theme, “Transforming Literacy Learning Spaces” and will be an opportunity to rethink the fundamental importance of literacy learning spaces to build resilience and ensure quality, equitable, and inclusive education for all.
Isreal says our affiliation with the World Literacy Foundation with our work in Nigeria is a wonderful partnership to bringing the global knowledge, expertise and resources to help reduce the high rates of illiteracy in Nigeria.
The Pandemic caused a catastrophic rise in illiteracy says Mr Andrew Kay, CEO of the World Literacy Foundation.
Saying that we are in a recovery mode, with 1 billion students impacted by lockdowns triggering the world’s biggest educational disruption in history.
“770 million people in the globe cannot read or write a single word and a further 2 billion people struggle to read even a single sentence,” said Mr Andrew Kay.
Reading skills are the key determining factor for a child’s future academic success and reaching their full potential. What are the consequences of illiteracy? Poverty, unemployment, and life-long social, economic, and personal problems.
