Literacy today encompasses the ability to read, write, and understand information in various formats, including digital media. With the rise of technology, skills such as digital literacy have become essential, allowing individuals to navigate online resources, social media, and digital communication effectively. Globally, literacy rates have improved, yet challenges remain, particularly in developing regions. Organizations like UNESCO work to promote education and literacy initiatives, aiming to ensure that everyone has access to the skills needed for personal and professional growth in an increasingly interconnected world.
