A significant reason for the low literacy rate in East Timor is the prolonged period of conflict and instability, particularly during the Indonesian occupation from 1975 to 1999, which severely disrupted the education system. Additionally, limited access to quality education resources, inadequate infrastructure, and a shortage of trained teachers have hindered literacy development. Economic challenges also restrict families' ability to prioritize education, further contributing to low literacy levels.
