It is alarming to note that around 625 million illiterate adults live in Asian and the Pacific Countries, while 113 million children have no chance of attending school. Figure 1 shows the percentages of illiteracy across the world. Figure 1: Illiterate Population in the World Source:(UNESCO Institute for Statistics, January 2009b) Asian and the Pacific Countries constitute 71% of the world's illiterate population. This reflects a serious situation considering around 66% of the illiterates are women. The illiteracy levels are higher among people living in rural and remote areas. In countries where the overall adult literacy rate is lower, the gap between female and male literacy rate is greater. Countries which have implemented Community Learning Center Program (CLCPs) since 2000 have recorded increases in literacy rates. Figure 2 gives the distribution of global adult (15 years and above) illiterate population by region during 2005-2007.
