Summary: “The development and implementation of the ULAP as a national plan will have significant programmatic and systemic implications on all ongoing and future literacy programmes run by the government, DPs, INGOs and local NGOs. To increase effectiveness of the ongoing programmes, the literacy providers will need to be aware of various programmatic issues presented herein. These include, a) shift in focus from mere literacy to poverty reduction and development goals; b) widening of the scope to bring diversity to the learning package; c) target setting to reach the priority groups; d) planning programmes for low coverage districts; e) revisiting curriculum and materials to ensure convergence of national and local needs…”—(p.
