'''List of countries by [[literacy]] rate''' |
|||
The figures from the report represent a mixture of data collected by the [[CIA]] World Book {{Ref|0}}{{Ref|1}} and national self-reported data. Where data was unavailable older figures were used. For highly developed/high income countries where literacy statistics were not collected, a rate of 99% was assumed. |
|||
==List== |
|||
Over two-thirds of the world's 793 million illiterate adults are found in only eight countries (Bangladesh, China, Egypt, Ethiopia, India, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Pakistan). Of all the illiterate adults in the world, two-thirds are women; extremely low literacy rates are concentrated in three regions (the Arab states, South and West Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa), where around one-third of the men and half of all women are illiterate. |
