The conference’s objective is to explore different aspects of literacy, functioning at the same time as a dynamic forum where different theoretical and applied contributions to literacy research will be brought together. In understanding the quality or state of being literate in the 21st century, it is important that the following essential aspects are considered equally: the enhanced role of technology, the ways and forms of communications, the nature and speed of information and last but not least the change in the composition of societies in the global world.

The conference can be attended by all education professionals/paraprofessionals as well as education stakeholders interested in promoting literacy. Enrollment, admission and participation to the conference is free.
