POLICY BRIEF: Europe needs numerate citizens who are able to maximize their life chances and make a positive contribution to society. We need numerate populations in order to build strong economies and to be able to compete globally, as well as to improve social equality and civic trust. New research shows that we are currently failing to achieve this.
