Initiatives to cut Arab illiteracy rates
Doha: Qatar will host the first Unesco Regional Conference in Support of Global Literacy here from March 12 to 14.
The conference is being sponsored by Unesco and Qatar Foundation, organisers said in a statement yesterday.
The event under the theme 'Literacy in the Arab States: Building Partnerships and Promoting Innovative Approaches' will seek ways to reduce illiteracy in the Arab states, where approximately 58 million adults are illiterate. Of that figure 66 per cent are women.
The conference will also address the notable disparity of literacy rates between Arab countries.
