The interactive global literacy rates among adults, over the period 1800-2014. This is a powerful graph: it tells us that over the last two centuries the share of illiterate adults has gone down from 88% to less than 15%.

This global perspective on education leads to a natural question: What does it actually mean to be 'literate' in this statistical sense?

This is not a simple question. Literacy rates are only a proxy for what we actually care about, namely literacy skills. The distinction matters because literacy skills are complex and span over a range of proficiency shades, while literacy rates assume a sharp, binary distinction between those who are and aren’t ‘literate’.

What is the definition of literacy that underlies the estimates in the chart below? And how do these estimates compare to other measures of educational achievement and literacy skills?

In this post we answer these questions. We begin with an overview of recent estimates published by UNESCO, and then move on to discuss long-run estimates that rely on historical data.
