Material poverty for illiteracy in Mexico
Introduction
The objective of writing this essay is to show how illiteracy has a great influence with the poverty of our country since I consider that illiteracy is a problem that Mexico has been dragging since very ancient times that is why it considers it as a topic ofmuch importance and which should be taken aware.
That is why then I will show data and information that make us see how big this problem is and as day by day it is increasing and leaving our country below in terms of economy and problems that this brings with it.
When addressing this issue, it is also taken into consideration that the number of people who can have access to the permanent evolution of education at higher levels and the fact that they are left behind or stop being interested in the study for personal reasons are also very little.or economic makes our country day by day have more illiterate people.
We are going to talk about who and why they could never or wanted to study, there are several reasons and each of them are very varied
Personally, I think they go from ideologies, customs, economy, misinformation, lack of resources to study until lack of institutions in places that are not very entered to society, as well as that people are not interested in growing personally and academically
I will do this mention only on the opposite issue that literacy is, since I consider that it is something super important because as human beings we have the need to relate to more people and education is somehow necessary because it allows us to have conversation issuesAnd more security to relate to others then that is why I will show them below the reasons why a large number of people do not study
Developing
In order to begin with the writing of the subject, it seems important to me that it is clear about the concept of which we are going to talk to me, that is why I leave the definition below: “Inegi points to illiteracy to people 15 or over years of agewho do not know how to read or write a message.”(Pixel, 2018)
“The illiteracy problem is important because it is an indicator of the inequality that characterizes a country.
From this perspective, illiteracy is related to serious social problems such as poverty and marginalization, so it can be understood as a consequence of the economic and social problems that afflict a population.
The result of special studies for researchers and officials of the subject evidences that the percentage of samples in illiteracy indices is 4.7 % of the population of the country, which grows every year. UNESCO considers a population literate when people who do not know how to read and write do not go from 4 %;This is not the case of Mexico, where it is still high.”(Ayala, 2019)
In the research carried out I found this text that refers to what I am going to address because it is just mentioning the problems that illiteracy causes and since every year this problem grows more and more, although it is true that not allWe have the opportunities to reach a higher educational level, it is also true that there are people who do not even have the opportunity to study a basic level of education and this is where a question arises, if there are guilty of this, who are they who are? The rulers of our country or the disinterest that may exist by people? Personally, I consider that both are guilty, as main responsible, I think it is the Government for not providing the necessary tools, materials and institutions for people to study in the most marginalized areas of our country since if they do not have a adequate personnel or environment and do not receive the aids that should be given To meet primary needs and makes them not prepare well and this leads us to the same, to more and more people who are not academically prepared and that cannot be developed in an optimal work environment for the need of our country and their own own Of these, as second responsible I think they are the people themselves since they have some guilt because many often in certain place It is and more particularly in the villages do not take interest in education since they do not consider it necessary because they are not seen working in a company or having a formal job and that is why from young people they are going to work instead of Study because not everything is the fault of our rulers since there are places where at least basic education is given in a good way and a good atmosphere but the children or parents of these do not find any interest or not They give him the importance he deserves and that is where anyone can be blamed but the people themselves disinterested in the subject causing this is a future poverty.
I think that we can clearly realize that in the places that exists more material poverty is where there is a lower degree of literacy because as mentioned above if people are not prepared cannot have a job that is well paid and this leads them to lack manytimes even of the most basic things such as having adequate housing, clothing, medications or even food for everyone and it is unfortunately that it is our country so much this problem since it affects us all.
“Over 10 years, the educational lag decreased, after 21.9% to 16.9%, with greater emphasis among the older adult population (65 years or more), in which 68 went.5% in 2008 to 54.5% in 2018.
The population with some disabilities was the second population group with the highest reduction in educational lag, after 58.5% in 2010 to 46.9% in 2018.The indigenous population, in 2008 the educational lag was 37.6%, while for 2018 the percentage decreased to 31.1%. In what corresponds to the speaking population of an indigenous language, the evolution of this lack was 49.9% to 43.4% in the same years.”(International Literacy Day: In Mexico there are still 5.7% of the population that does not know how to read and write, 2019)
In this information, data is presented in recent years has been lowering the illiteracy index but in the same way this percentage remains high considering that we are in the 21st century and it is supposed to be easier than before, these data are They show that the highest percentage of illiterate people are over 65 I think this is because there were not the same possibilities with which they are today that although sometimes it is difficult before it was more, most of these people are Women and as always the woman has been forbidden more and this is one of them since before she did not get used to women studying only had to devote themselves to home and men instead had more freedom
The disabled people are in the second position and this is because they are not treated everywhere as they should be treated, many of the times they are not attended by really prepared people and they do not offer them the attention they need and it is because of what they do not learn and do not find sense since they believe they cannot get ahead for their disability
Another point is indigenous communities since these communities are the places that have the least evolution and within that evolution is education, these people seek usI am interested in that the reasons why these people do not obtain a good education and one of those things are discrimination, but it is also because as mentioned above, these communities are usually very far from everyone and education does not arriveEven them, there are no fences schools, they do not have an economy that can provide them with education and this leads them to fall into disinterest in learning things as basic as reading or writing and this causes these people to move away from society
conclusion
With everything read and said previously I realize that this issue is still very strong since past times to which you owe its place and start looking for solutions
Today there are some aspects that are no longer like before but I consider that all the person they wanted at the time and for some reason they could not do it now, regardless of the age they have, now everything is easier and really that it isAt least knowing how to read a little and write anything to communicate with others, this also helps us to learn to speak correctly and stop using words that do not exist
Although this can take a long time to restore yourself, I consider that it is completely worth it for the simple fact of having a country full of people prepared and that in the future this can bring wealth for our country and for each person who wishes to overcome day by day without lackof no material resource that many or most of the time are necessary to get ahead
In addition to the fact that there is currently an institution called the National Institute for Adult Education among other institutions that offer the opportunity to learn, as well as for disabled people who are easy to attach to an environment such as most people whereare offered different teaching methods.
Finally I hope that in the coming years this situation will improve, little by little, but in a positive way and that with this brings benefits to Mexicans and when this problem disappears the country is full of people with critical and intelligent thinking to make ourMexico grows in all areas and thus be a stable place
