EQUALITY

Gender equality can affect access to healthcare services, education, environment and many others. As we have seen in the UNICEF data about education, there is inequality in access to education between girls and boys. The number varies between one county to the other. The worse situation the data is in developing countries. Grown et al. 2005 showed that, for a long time, researchers have recognized that educating girls is important for improving health, reducing genger inequality and empowering women. To do this a lot need to be done. For education improvement, there is a need of making school more affordable by reducing costs and offering targeted scholarships, building secondary schools close to where girls live and making schools girl-friendly (Grown, et al. 2005).
