Wow, it’s shocking when put in cold numbers like this. I had no idea there were so many people (still!) that can’t read and write… Great infographic, Julie, thanks for sharing!
Oof! Some of those statistics are startling! Thanks for sharing the infographic though…at least the literacy rates are improving.
