The graph below talks
about amount of people who did not know to read either write in the year 2000, distributed
by region and gender.
It shows that in Developed
Countries had little percentage of people who were illiteracy, and it is a
little more women than men (around 1%).
In America/Caribbean had around
10% illiteracy man and 11% of women; while in East Asia/Oceania the difference
between genders was bigger (9% men and 20% women).
This stat indicate that
the places when were largest range of illiteracy people were Sub-Sahara Africa,
Arabs States and South Asia. The first had a few more than 30% of men, and
almost the half of women population as people who cannot read and write. The
second shows around 30% of men and more than fifty percent of women. The last
one had the highest range of illiteracy people (around 35% of men and almost
60% of women).
It is possible to appreciate
that in these regions were more women illiteracy than men, and there are high
differences between places.
