The Literacy Field Speaks!

An Update on the National Literacy Action Agenda

The Fall 2002 issue of literacy.ca featured the National Literacy Action Agenda discussion guide and feedback workbook, and we were delighted to see the literacy community respond with commitment and passion. We received over 110 survey responses representing a broad spectrum of over 240 literacy workers, learners, researchers and tutors from every province and territory. This article highlights some of your ideas and concerns, and provides an update on what comes next as MCL works to make sure that literacy is addressed in the federal government’s emerging skills and learning strategy.
