Let’s talk about literacy.
Literacy needs are greater than you think.
In Ireland, one in six adults has unmet literacy needs and may be unable to fill in a form, understand health information, help kids with homework or use the internet.
Literacy affects everyone, everywhere.
Literacy allows us to understand, use, and act on information. It allows us to stand up for ourselves on issues that affect our lives.
Literacy is more than reading and writing.
Literacy touches virtually every aspect of our lives - at home, at work and in the community. It has a great influence on our well-being.
Literacy is a human right
Literacy allows us to fully engage in society and be active citizens. It provides us with opportunities and is essential to developing an equal society.
