dc.description.abstract	The research paper was intended to evaluate eradicating illiteracy in Dassie zuria Awraja which includes what is now Dassie Town, Dassie zuria and Kutabar districts. It is to remind the public the contribution of the Literacy campaign which is on the way of being forgotten by now. It attempts to assess the unique features of the Literacy campaign; the objectives and the strategies used to implement it; the challenges faced; the weaknesses and the remedies under taken. The literacy campaign which was conducted from 1979-1991 had liberated thousands of the peoples of the Awraja from the black curtains of illiteracy. The literacy campaign did not only enable people to read and write, but also prepared them to participate in socio-economic and political activities of the country consciously. In the political aspect, the people of the Awraja were able to participate as leaders in youth association, women association, in peasant association at qabale, worada and Awraja level. Socially, the people improved their way of life by fighting backward traditional activities; by keeping personal and environmental hygiene. Many of them became government employees by completing their education from different levels. Economically, the people tried to increase productivity by using different methods of farming, by utilizing natural resources properly.	en_US
