The country pages of the IGLU study do not offer the current study results, but rather background information on the education system, educational policy, and reading culture and promotion in each country. For the specific study results, please refer to the main page for the study in the respective year. Unfortunately, the IGLU study does not have central country pages. Therefore, for each study, you must first click on the respective year and then on the country. We have linked the available country information for Iran for each year directly here:
