Charu Malhotra, Co-founder and Managing Director, Primus Partners, emphasizes the urgent need to redefine literacy in the context of the digital age. She highlighted that traditional notions of literacy, limited to reading, writing, and numeracy, are no longer sufficient in a world shaped by artificial intelligence, emerging technologies, and the creative economy. She recommends for a broader, more functional understanding of literacy that encompasses digital, media, cultural, entrepreneurial, and environmental competencies, among others.
