Celebrate International Literacy Day with a multilingual approach and the SDGs

Are you ready to celebrate International Literacy Day with us in your classroom? This year’s theme, “Fostering Multilingual Education: Literacy for Mutual Understanding and Peace”, will be “Promoting Multilingual Education: Literacy for Mutual Understanding and Peace”.The report underlines the importance of literacy in promoting social cohesion and peace globally.
In a world where multilingualism is increasingly common, adopting a mother tongue-based multilingual approach to literacy can unlock significant cognitive, pedagogical and socio-economic benefits.
This approach not only empowers learners, but also strengthens community identities and fosters mutual respect.

To celebrate the “International Literacy Day“To help you continue to inspire a love of reading, we are offering three free downloadable resources designed for each cycle of primary education.
These resources focus on phonics and reading and are aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), making it easy to integrate these global goals into your lessons.

Each resource includes detailed notes that will guide you through the activities and ensure that your students get the most out of the experience.
In addition, we encourage you to keep an eye on our blog for additional free resources we offer related to the SDGs.
