Every year, the UNESCO International Literacy Prizes reward excellence and innovation in the field of literacy throughout the world.
By honoring the work of institutions, organizations and individuals through these Prizes, UNESCO seeks to support effective literacy practices and encourages the promotion of dynamic literate societies.
UNESCO invites nominations [ submission form ] from Member States and International Non-Governmental Organizations (INGOs) for the following Literacy Prizes:
The UNESCO King Sejong Literacy Prize: Supporting literacy in multilingual contexts
The UNESCO Confucius Prize for Literacy: Supporting literacy in rural areas
The selection of prize winners is made by an International Jury appointed by UNESCO’s Director-General, which meets in Paris once a year. The Prize is normally awarded at an official ceremony held for that purpose at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris on the occasion of International Literacy Day, September 8.
