SUMMARY:Literacy in the 21st Century: Participation – Inclusion – Equity
DESCRIPTION:The ELINET Association will host an International Symposium for Improving Literacy Policies and Practices across Europe from July 23rd -24th 2018 in Cologne.\n\nLiteracy is an essential prerequisite for all kinds of learning and human development. It enables people to live full and meaningful lives\, and to contribute towards the enrichment of the communities in which we live. By literacy we mean the ability to read and write at a level whereby individuals can effectively understand and use written communication in all media (print or electronic)\, including digital literacy. In the knowledge-based societies of the 21st Century\, the rapid spread of new technologies and a constantly changing work environment\, literacy learning is no longer limited to childhood and adolescence but must be recognised as a lifelong need and requirement.\n\nThe two day symposium will offer various opportunities to share ideas and perspectives on current and future literacy issues around participation\, inclusion and equity. The symposium strives to produce outcomes in terms of statements on key-questions for the future\, and policy statements. \n\nFor more information and the call for contributions please visit the website.
