INTERNATIONAL LITERACY DAY 2026

Literacy for People, the Planet, and Prosperity

Today, IRIAD recognise literacy as a powerful tool for building empowered people, resilient communities and a sustainable future.

When people can read, understand information, access technology and exercise their rights, they are better equipped to make informed decisions, engage with public institutions and hold leaders accountable.

A literate society is an empowered society.

This International Literacy Day, IRIAD call for greater investment in inclusive literacy and digital education that leaves no one behind, because literacy is not only about learning, it is about rights, participation, opportunity and building a more inclusive empowered and sustainable society.
