WOMEN’S RIGHT TO EDUCATION :
* Everybody has the right to education – * It is right to free and compulsory primary education , without any discrimination on basis of gender . * This has been recognized since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) in 1948. * But now a days in some of the countries gender inequality in education is extreme . * Girls are less likely to access schools & they are confined to the four walls of their house .
Benefits of education to women :
* Education brings in Cultural changes . * Education plays an important role in enabling girls and women to secure other rights * Girls are respected in the society and participate in all cultural activities and festivals . * Better health and awareness . * Poverty reduction - It is also the single most powerful way to lift people out of poverty.
But unfortunately we find that * Girls make up for more than 50% of those 75 million children currently denied primary education, * Women form the vast majority of the 776 million illiterate persons worldwide.
