There seems to be a large gap regarding females' participation in National development; the lagging of girls and women in this regard, issued out of lack of conscious effort to empower females through education. Many girls are out - of - school and this affects them and generation through them.
The 'empower Girls Program' creates real learning opportunities and strategies, with mobile technology, that are uniquely suited to address some of the barriers to education for out-of-school girls and to support girls still in school to successfully complete secondary education. Girls and women comprise the single largest undeserved and hard to reach group in the world. The advantages of educating girls, not only for their own empowerment, but the benefits for their families and communities, are well-documented. The tremendous public – economic and developmental – benefit to educating girls is not matched in the same way by educating boys. Educated mothers have healthier families. Educated mothers are more than twice as likely to send their own children to school.
While gender parity in primary enrollment has significantly improved, there remains a persistent gap in the critical transition from primary to secondary education. Too many girls around the world face inordinate barriers to go to school and stay in school - lack of physical access due to distance, safety, early marriage, as well as cultural, religious, and economic constraints. ]
