2020 UNESCO International Literacy Prizes
ENETOSH member OSH Literacy.org from Ireland has been nominated for the 2020 International Literacy Prize by the UNESCO Commission Office in Ireland, which is run by the Irish Department of Education.
The Literacy Prize by UNESCO is supposed to reward five individuals or organizations around the world every year for their outstanding projects that promote literacy within the theme ‘Teaching and learning literacy: the role of educators and changing pedagogies’.
This year’s thematic focus is highlighting teachers who are at the frontline of delivering literacy learning, and their contribution to promoting youth and adult literacy, linked to target 4.6 of the Sustainable Development Goal on Education (SDG4), where literacy is perceived as a continuum developed throughout life.
OSH Literacy.org is committed to making a tangible reduction in the unacceptably high number of workplace deaths, diseases, injuries and losses which result from poor OSH literacy skills. David Magee, founder and CEO, believes in making OSH communications and training ‘accessible to all’ regardless of colour, creed, culture, gender, age, sexual orientation, social background, politics, economic status, physical, educational and/or mental ability and has been working for this goal for many years. The nomination is a great honor, and we wish David and OSH Literacy.org good luck!
