International Literacy Day HistoryInternational Literacy Day is an annual observance that promotes the importance of literacy as a fundamental right and a prerequisite for sustainable development. This worldwide event seeks to raise awareness about illiteracy rates and the challenges faced by those who lack basic reading and writing skills. Advocates of literacy work on this day to promote local, national, and global efforts to help people acquire essential literacy skills and improve towards an inclusive, knowledgeable society. Established by UNESCO in 1965, International Literacy Day is an opportunity for Canadians to reflect on the progress made in the country and to address existing challenges in the field of literacy. Canada has a strong focus on literacy, with over 99% of the adult population being literate. However, challenges remain, particularly within marginalized groups, such as Indigenous communities. International Literacy Day highlights the importance of addressing these disparities and implementing policies and interventions to improve literacy rates among communities in need. In Canada, International Literacy Day is observed by organizing various activities, such as conferences, workshops, and events promoting reading and writing. Educational institutions, non-governmental organizations, and literacy-based initiatives collaborate and work together to engage people in meaningful discussions about literacy. These events aim to highlight the importance of literacy while drawing attention to the need for accessible and quality education for all Canadians. International Literacy Day is celebrated annually on September 8, emphasizing the critical role literacy plays in the lives of Canadians and individuals around the world.
