significant show of commitment to global literacy and multilingual education efforts, UNESCO announced the theme for <a href="https://www.unesco.org/en/days/literacy">International Literacy Day</a> (ILD) 2024 will be “Promoting multilingual education: Literacy for mutual understanding and peace.”</p> <p>The global ILD celebration will be held Sept. 9-10 in Yaoundé, Cameroon and will feature discussions highlighting literacy work in Africa and beyond, as well as an award ceremony for the UNESCO International Literacy Prizes.</p> <p>This year, four members of the SIL Africa Learning & Development team are set to participate in the global conference:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Mr. Timothy Kamau</strong> [<em>Kenya</em>]: advocacy specialist and materials development specialist, literacy/MLE consultant in training</li> <li><strong>Ms. Lydia Teera</strong> [<em>Uganda</em>]: literacy/early grade reading project manager and advocacy specialist</li> <li><strong>Ms. Béatrice Konfe</strong> [<em>Burkina Faso</em>]: literacy/MLE consultant, advocacy specialist and literacy domain team leader for francophone SIL</li> <li><strong>Mr. Frans Barah</strong> [<em>Cameroon</em>]: language technology consultant, Bloom (book development software) trainer</li> </ul> <p>The SIL delegation brings together experts from different regions of Africa, each with a wealth of experience in literacy, multilingual education (MLE) and advocacy. Their roles at the ILD event will involve sharing their expertise and collaborating with international partners to advance SIL’s multilingual education and literacy goals.</p> <p>SIL’s liaison officer to UNESCO Barbara Trudell is also actively engaged in producing a paper in collaboration with the youth and adult literacy office at UNESCO that will focus on the theme of “Literacy for Mutual Understanding and Peace,” reflecting the event’s global message.</p> <hr /> <p class="text-center"><small><cite><a href="https://www.sil.org/literacy-education">Learn more</a> about SIL’s ongoing
