From Access to Equality: Empowering Girls and Women
through Literacy and Secondary Education
Within the framework of UNESCO’s Global
Partnership for Girl’s and Women’s Education: “Better Life, Better
Future”, this newly published Report makes the case for education as a
means for empowerment for girls and women.
Through an illustration of cases studies and examples from around the
world, the Report puts in perspective the multiple benefits of investing in
girls’ and women’s education whether through formal or non-formal education.
With a focus on secondary education and literacy, it highlights enabling
factors that contribute to closing the gender gap.
