Bringing New Opportunities to Adolescent Girls in Socially
Conservative Settings:
The Ishraq Program in Rural Upper Egypt
Quote from Page 1: "The years of transition from childhood to
adulthood are usually defined by expanding opportunities, growing
self-awareness, and increased knowledge about the world. For girls in rural
Egypt, the opposite can be true. As girls reach adolescence, their world becomes
increasingly confined to the home, their opportunities limited to household
chores, and their future prospects restricted to early marriage."
