The annual Global Education Report shows significant progress in literacy rates, with 91% of adults now able to read compared to 86% a decade ago. However, the report highlights persistent inequalities.
Key findings:
- Literacy up 5% globally
- Gender gap narrowing
- Sub-Saharan Africa shows strongest progress
- Digital divide remains a challenge
Education funding has increased in most countries, though the report calls for more investment in early childhood education.
