To Educate a Girl - Video
What
does it take to educate a girl? Framed by the United Nations global initiative
to provide equal access to education for girls by 2015, To Educate a Girl takes
a ground-up and visually stunning view of that effort through the eyes of girls
in Nepal and Uganda who are out of school, starting school, or fighting against
the odds to stay in school.

THE STATE OF GIRLS' EDUCATION
The
state of girls' education today has improved significantly over the past
decade. However, girls continue to lag behind their male counterparts in many
areas of the world, in terms of access to education, completion of schooling,
and acquisition of basic skills such as literacy.
