Abstract

The main objective of this research is to identify the economic and social impact on the literacy of the Wanni people identified through that research gap. The research methodology utilizes inscriptions and primary literature sources, research reports by various researchers and administrative reports of British Nationals, and interviews with 173 families in 35 villages in the Wanni region. The data are analyzed and focused on the social and economic impacts of collecting data on children in school, employment, housing and infrastructure, health, and food. The social, economic and political problems they face are a major factor in the growth or decline of a particular community, and it can be confirmed that the socio-economic factors they face play a major role in determining the educational literacy of the people of Wanni.
