Making a Case for Literacy

The State of Adult Literacy and Adult Basic Education in the NWT - A Summary of Research

Authors: Lutra Associates Ltd.

The NWT Literacy Council wanted to find out about adult literacy and adult basic education in the NWT. In order to do the research they asked a few questions. Here's an example of a few questions :

What is literacy in today's world?
How do NWT adults get help to improve their literacy?
What can we do to influence the future of adult literacy and adult basic education in the NWT?

In other sections of the report, the researchers looked at who is responsible for adult literacy and adult basic education in the Northwest Territories, for example. As well, they gave recommendations such as: Develop and implement a policy for literacy and adult basic education.

For this research, the use of other reports and interviews was very helpful. For more information : NWT Literacy Council, http://www.nwt.literacy.ca/.
