This week the city of Oxford is hosting the World Literacy Summit 2025, one of the largest global meetings dedicated to literacy. Today, between 3.40pm and 4pm (local time), the highlight will be the presentation of the iRead4Skills project, led by Regina Duarte, Commissioner of the National Reading Plan 2027 (PNL2027), in room 10 of the Examination School.

The theme of the session, ‘Enhancing literacy for a more inclusive society’, reflects the central aim of the project: to make literacy accessible, functional and aligned with the contemporary demands of the digital society.

The project’s participation in this international forum reinforces its active role in promoting literacy as a tool for inclusion and progress. The World Literacy Summit 2025 brings together delegations from more than 85 countries, with a full programme of debates, workshops and presentations available at: worldliteracysummit.org/programme.
