This year’s International Literacy Day focuses on “Literacy teaching and learning in the COVID-19 crisis and beyond,” especially on the role of educators and changing pedagogies. As we commemorate this day, let us reflect on the following questions;
What is the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on youth and adult literacy educators and teaching and learning?
What are the lessons learnt?
How can we effectively position youth and adult literacy learning in global and national responses and in strategies for the recovery and resilience-building phase?
Happy International Literacy Day.
