<P> This is a list of countries by literacy rate . The figures represented are almost entirely collected by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) on behalf of UNESCO with 2015 estimates based on people aged 15 or over who can read and write . Where data is taken from a different source, notes are provided . The data is collated by mostly using surveys within the last ten years which are self - declared by the persons in question . UIS provide estimates based on these for the year 2015 with a Global Age - specific Literacy Projections Model (GALP). </P> <P> The global literacy rate for all people aged 15 and above is 86.3% . The global literacy rate for all males is 90.0% and the rate for all females is 82.7% . The rate varies throughout the world with developed nations having a rate of 99.2% (2013); Oceania having 71.3%; South and West Asia having 70.2% (2015) and sub-Saharan Africa at 64.0% (2015). Over 75% of the world's 781 million illiterate adults are found in South Asia, West Asia and sub-Saharan Africa and women represent almost two - thirds of all illiterate adults globally . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Country </Th> <Th_colspan="4"> UNESCO </Th> <Th> Non-UNESCO literacy rate </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Literacy rate (all) </Th> <Th> Male literacy </Th> <Th> Female literacy </Th> <Th> Gender difference </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> World </Td> <Td> 86.3 86.3% </Td> <Td> 90.0% </Td> <Td> 82.7% </Td> <Td> 7.3% </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Afghanistan </Td> <Td> 38.15612 38.2% </Td> <Td> 52.0% </Td> <Td> 24.2% </Td> <Td> 27.8% </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Albania </Td> <Td> 97.5539 97.6% </Td> <Td> 98.4% </Td> <Td> 96.8% </Td> <Td> 1.6% </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Algeria </Td> <Td> 80.19891 80.2% </Td> <Td> 87.2% </Td> <Td> 73.1% </Td> <Td> 14.0% </Td> <Td> 87.7% </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Andorra </Td> <Td_colspan="4"> not reported by UNESCO 2015 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Angola </Td> <Td> 71.14099 71.1% </Td> <Td> 82.0% </Td> <Td> 60.7% </Td> <Td> 21.3% </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Antigua and Barbuda </Td> <Td_colspan="4"> 98.95 not reported by UNESCO 2015 </Td> <Td> 99.0% (2013) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Argentina </Td> <Td> 98.08516 98.1% </Td> <Td> 98.0% </Td> <Td> 98.1% </Td> <Td> -
