Lifting Literacy, Lifting Tasmania

Community Consultation is open

The Literacy Advisory Panel (the Panel) invites submissions on its final consultation paper from Tuesday, 28 February 2023 to 5pm Monday, 20 March 2023.

The Panel has heard from many people on what is needed to Lift Literacy in Tasmania. It would now like to hear from the community on the key themes it has identified. The key themes will inform the recommendations that the Panel makes to the Premier.
