- "Nicaragua was honored by UNESCO for its National Literacy Campaign,
- which reduced the nation's illiteracy rate from over 50 percent to
- below 15 percent. The revolution has brought health services,
- especially preventative medicine, to thousands of Nicaraguans who
- previously had no such care, and in 1982 the World Health Organization
- awarded Nicaragua its prize for the most significant achievement in
- public health by a Third World nation..."
