The data displays the estimated world illiteracy rates by region and gender for the previous year.
Generally speaking, the data shows that certain regions have a higher inability to read and write than other regions. Also, it shows that females have higher illiteracy rates than men all over the world.
From this data, we can infer that individuals in Developed Countries are most likely to be able to read and write, while South Asians are least likely to be able to read and write. Furthermore, we can depict from the data that Sub-Saharan Africa, Arab states, and South Asia have a significantly higher proportion of individuals who are unable to read and write than individuals in East Asia, Latin America, and Developed Countries.
Also, since all regions show a higher inability to read and write in females rather than males, we can conclude that females have higher illiteracy rates regardless of the region they are situated in.
