Across the region, 9 million girls between the ages of about 6 and 11 will never go to school at all, compared to 6 million boys. Their disadvantage starts early: 23% of girls are out of primary school compared to 19% of boys.
Girls' education is the precursor to a lasting change in the nation.
These rights include nondiscrimination; the right to survival and development of potential; protection from harmful influences, abuses, and exploitation; and full participation in family, cultural, and social life. A girl who hasn't attended school won't understand the interest in giving her children a quality education when she becomes a woman.
