Empowering women through education
As a woman growing up in the “Western World”, I was lucky enough to attend formal education because that is the norm in the western society. However, in many countries around the world, educating girls is not seen as important. With this opinion of lack of importance, women are discriminated against and as a result denied a very basic human right: EDUCATION.
For many women in developing countries, they are not deterred from continuing with her education. Their one wish is to see many more women like themselves work together to ensure that no child is denied an education and that no person remains illiterate.
I genuinely believe that illiteracy, poverty and underdevelopment are linked. The one aspect of life that can break this chain is through education.
By way of introducing this topic, through CAMFED USA, I’d like to introduce Mary. CAMFED USA is an organistaion aiming to empower women through education. Please listen to Mary’s story as I feel she can sum up this topic in more ways that I could ever hope to.
