What is the illiteracy rate for turkey?

Answer 1

The illiteracy rate would change, depending on which segment of the population you look at. The adult illiteracy rate is falling, but still stands at about 13.5% according some sources.

Literacy in children is improving, but girls are still significantly disadvantaged in Turkey.

However, you need to be very careful about what you mean by illiterate. If a person can read and or write a simple statement about every day life, that could make them literate. However, such a person may well be functionally illiterate because they may not be able to read and complete forms, such as an insurance document or a job application.
