- W2463444658 abstract "In general, maps of poverty and exclusion in rural areas as well as the periphery of large urban centres mirror disparities in educational provision, as well as youth and adult literacy needs worldwide. Analysis of the most recent available data (UIS, May 2005) shows that while the absolute number of youth and adults with basic literacy needs is stabilizing or even declining, this is not the case in all regions, or uniformly within individual countries. Disparities are greatest for women and girls. Three regions, Sub-Saharan Africa, South and West Asia, and the Arab States, have the greatest challenges to meet the EFA and MDG goals with respect to primary education and adult literacy. They are further challenged by demographic considerations. The school-age population is growing at a greater pace than the capacity of education systems to respond either in quantitative or qualitative terms. Young people readily leave school, without acquiring sustainable reading and writing skills and other competencies, either because of the poor quality of the teaching/learning environment, poverty, conflict or crisis conditions not to mention violence within or surrounding schools (which are no longer 'safe havens' for children.) HIV/AIDs have taken a toll as well, in these same contexts. Forced migration or economic migration from rural to urban areas or internationally makes life more precarious for the disadvantaged as well as challenging efforts to provide effective schooling or adult literacy programmes. Also, maps of poverty in regions and countries which are not necessarily at the extremes of low literacy levels still show disadvantage. In Latin America, maps of poverty often correspond to maps of indigenous peoples. The deteriorating economic climate in countries in transition in Central and Eastern Europe has already taken a toll on previously high quality educational provision and adult literacy levels, Minorities in these countries, especially in rural areas, are also disproportionately affected." @default.
