Concept Note on Girls’ Secondary Education
It is no novelty that investing in girls’ education is probably the highest return on investment in the developing world. As empowering girls and women through education not only improves their own welfare, but also impacts the well-being of their children, families and communities. Educating girls and women means capacitating them to play an active role in decision-making processes of their communities; consequently, enabling them to trigger transformation processes of traditional mind-sets within their communities on matters such as girls’ education or women’s participation.
