Day of the African Child: Empowering Girls through Equal Access to Education
“When you educate a girl, you educate a nation”: this phrase has been quoted many times, but the impact of girls’ education on society is undeniable. Improvements in economic prosperity and resilience, health outcomes and overall wellbeing can be attributed to the prioritization of girls’ education. Providing equal opportunities for girls to attend school and empowering girls to continue their education can open a world of possibilities for marginalized communities and create dynamic global change.
Discovery Learning Alliance centers its work around getting more children, particularly girls, in school and learning. Through teacher professional development with 21st-century teaching skills, high-quality educational video content and community engagement and support, we empower students to pursue their education and reach their full potential.
