Does Education Has Any Gender??

        

 

Apparently the answer to this question should be no. But in a country rife with gender inequalities and an underlying nature of patriarchy, girl children often find themselves at the short end of the stick. Discrimination against girls is rampant and due to the fear of abuse and exploitation, they are kept at home and not sent to school. Too often, women and girls are discriminated against in health, education, political representation, labor market, and so on. Moreover, poor girls from rural areas with uneducated mothers are the children most likely to be excluded from learning opportunities. And the most alarming thing is that there are 31 million girls of primary school age not in school. Seventeen million of these girls will probably never attend school in their lifetimes.
