UNESCO International Literacy Day

UNESCO International Literacy Day Thursday 8 September Since 1967, UNESCO 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 771 million young people and adults, around the world, lacking basic literacy skills today.

If you or someone you know needs help with their literacy, get in touch to see if we can help email making.choices@daces.derbyshire.gov.uk. #LiteracyDay
