A high rate of adult illiteracy can severely hinder a country's economic development, as it limits individuals' ability to obtain jobs, participate in the economy, and make informed decisions. This can lead to increased poverty rates and social inequality, as illiterate individuals often lack access to essential services and resources. Additionally, high illiteracy can stifle civic engagement and democratic participation, weakening governance and social cohesion. Ultimately, the consequences of widespread illiteracy can impede national progress and stability.
