description Literacy is one of the eight key competences for lifelong learning, defined as "the ability to identify, understand, express, create, and interpret concepts, feelings, facts, and opinions in both oral and written forms, using visual, auditory, and digital materials across disciplines and contexts" (EU, 2019). It is essential for effective communication and interaction, fostering creativity and further learning. Literacy skills are integral to a child"s educational, professional, personal, and social development, enabling critical thinking, imagination, and creativity. Conversely, poor literacy skills can lead to professional failure and vulnerability to manipulation or fraud. As such, literacy is a priority in contemporary education. In this context, issue 2 of the Journal of Educational Sciences, published on the journal"s 25th anniversary, explores literacy in educational contexts. It presents specific theories and practices that trace the evolution of pedagogical concepts alongside systemic developments in education. Literacy, both a traditional and evolving concept, continually gains new meanings in diverse social and professional spheres.
