  33. NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL COMMITMENTS OF PAKISTAN National and International Commitments for Promotion of Literacy and NFBE National Commitments:  Article 37-b of the Constitution: In accordance with Article 37-b of the Constitution, the state of Pakistan has pledged to remove illiteracy within minimum possible time.  Literacy Act 1985: This Act was passed by the Parliament to make literacy mandatory for certain privileges including employment, driving and arms licenses, and passports etc. Since 1985 and till 2016, after passage of more than 30 years, the date of enforcement of this Act could not be notified by the Government of Pakistan.  Article 25-A (Right to Education).: Access to free and compulsory education has been recognized as a fundamental right of all children of age 5 to 16 years, and State of Pakistan has been assigned the responsibility to ensure free education to all children. This Article 25-A necessitates formal as well as non-formal educational opportunities to about 25 million out of school children.  Vision 2025: Recognizing the catalytic role of education and literacy, Vision 2025, approved by the Federal Government and supported by all provincial governments, has declared human resource development as the first pillar. It has set the targets of 100% enrolment and completion rates at primary school level and achieving 90% literacy rate by 2025.

  34. NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL COMMITMENTS OF PAKISTAN • International Commitments: • Pakistan is signatory to various international declarations and conventions, which envisage education related targets for the countries. Few of these are listed below: •  Dakar Framework of Action for Education for All (2000-2015): In April 2000, Pakistan committed to achieve universal primary education and enhance its literacy rate by 50% within next fifteen years. Pakistan planned to achieve 86% literacy rate by 2015. •  MDGs: Pakistan signed Millennium Development Goals Declaration and pledged to achieve 8 MDGs by 2015. MDG 2 and 3 related to education and set the goals of achieving 100% enrolment and completion rate at primary level. Literacy Rate among population of age 15 to .24 years was declared as one of the indicators of MDG 2 by the world community. • Sustainable Development Goals: Recently, during 2015, Pakistan signed Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), along with other countries. Sustain Development Goal No 4 relates to education and one of its targets (Target No 4.6) is to promote literacy And achieve 100% literacy rate among youth by 2030. Keeping in view the past trends of literacy efforts in Pakistan and their fate, it is feared that country may again miss this target, if it is not accorded priority by the decision makers and planners in the country.
