Since 1967, International Literacy Day (ILD) celebrations have taken place annually around the world to remind the public of the importance of literacy.⁠ ⁠ A few ways in which you can observe International Literacy Day are:⁠ ⁠ 1. Encourage someone to read⁠ Whether it's your child, a family member or a friend, try assisting someone in becoming more knowledgeable by encouraging them to spend some time reading today.⁠ ⁠ 2. Start or join a book club⁠ Gather a bunch of friends and read a book together. Even if you've already read the book, discussing it in a group setting can highlight elements of the story that you may not have previously picked up on.⁠ ⁠ 3. Read a book⁠ Picking up a book is an easy way to start celebrating! 📚️✨
