Open Door Collective Video

This one-minute video makes the connection between increasing adult literacy and reducing poverty. The video can be used to introduce this concept when presenting an Open Door Collective paper, or as a discussion starter.

Please note:
the fact in the video about education levels having a greater impact on earnings than any other demographic factor is attributed to the American Library Association (ALA) but actually comes from the National Coalition for Literacy's Adult Education and Family Literacy (AEFL) Week Fact Sheet found at: https://national-coalition-literacy.org/adult-education-and-family-literacy-week/aefl-week-resources/
