Women make up half of the world's
population and yet represent a staggering 70% of the world's
poor. We live in a world in which women living in poverty face
gross inequalities and social justice from birth to death. From
poor education to poor nutrition to vulnerable and low pay
employment, the sequence of discrimination that a woman may
suffer during her entire life is unacceptable but all too
common.
We Enable Young Girls To Reach Their Full Potential
Investing in girls' education is one of the most effective ways
to reduce poverty. Investments in secondary school education for
girls yields especially high dividends.
Girls who have been educated are likely to marry later and to
have smaller and healthier families. Educated women can
recognize the importance of health care and know how to seek it
for themselves and their children. Education helps girls and
women to know their rights and to gain confidence to claim them.
"I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone
across the waters to create many ripples." Mother Teresa
