Innovative approaches of learning through family literacy on agenda of UNESCO workshop (Kathmandu, 27 February 2013)
|
In Nepal, your literacy status depends on whether you are a boy or a girl, a man or a woman. It is linked to your income, the caste or ethnicity, to which you belong, the mother tongue that you speak, the region where you live, or the fact whether you have a disability or not. It is also linked to the efficiency of literacy programmes. An interesting new approach for a more successful literacy strategy is the so called family literacy that will be on the agenda of a UNESCO workshop to be held from 9 to 11 March in Kathmandu. The 2012 Education for All Global Monitoring Report shows that progress towards the adult literacy goal has been too slow. Many countries will miss the adult literacy target of achieving a 50 percent improvement in levels of adult literacy by 2015, among these is Nepal with 60 per cent of adult literacy (2005-2010). Therefore, reaching out to 775 million adults at the global level, two-thirds of them women, to provide basic literacy skills has to be a key priority during the coming years.
