Literacy projections 254. The literacy raees for youth aged 15 to 19 have been projected to 1990, based on the 1980 enrolnent rates for children aged 6 to 11, according to a tine-sequence relaeionship between these rat.es found by the United Nations Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organlzation (UNESC!). 39,/ Because tbe enrolnent rates for 1980 are not. affecled by lhe different econonic qrowth scenarios, Che literacy rates for youEh in 1990 are not affected by thern either, This relationship is not inevitable but, gilren the time typicaUy required for major increases in school enrolnent, the overall Literacy rates for youth in 1990 rrrou ld depend largely on fhe proportion of those youth aged 15 Co 19 in 1990 who were enrolled in prinary school during the early 1980s, Based on Chis relationship, Che literacy rate for nales aged 15 to 19 in 1990 will be about 97 per cent in the oil-exporeing countries, 96 per cent in the upper-incorne oil-importing countries and 89 per cenE in Ehe low-incone countries, but only 75 per cent in the least developed countries. The rates for female youtb in 1990 lrill be nore diverse - as high as 93 per cent in Ehe upper-income oil-importing countries and in the oil-exporting countries, but only 65 Per cent in the low-incone countries and 41 per cent in the least develoPed countries (see table 41) - 255. The different economic scenarios, rdith their divergent economic growth and consequently divergent enrolment raEes after 1985, $ould lead to dlfferent literacy
analysis: The text appears to be discussing the relationship between economic growth, education, and literacy rates in different countries. The projection of literacy rates for youth aged 15-19 in 1990 is based on the enrolment rates for children aged 6-11 in 1980, and the text highlights the differences in literacy rates between countries with varying economic conditions. This suggests that the text is focused on the relationship between economic development and education.
