    19-04-2005 - April 18, 2005 – (UNESCO Institute for Education) If Africa’s populations are to attain an acceptable level of well-being, the search must go on for ways of meeting the challenge of illiteracy, concludes a new UNESCO publication.

    The publication “Unshackling Literacy” is written by Marc-Laurent Hazoumê and published by the UNESCO Institute for Education. It looks at the state of literacy in Africa. “There is no doubt that great advances have been accomplished”|, the author says. “However, for various political, economic and social reasons, the place of these advances is now regrettably slowing down, causing in tern an undeniable rise in illiteracy”.
