- Description
- The report shows which countries are succeeding and which are failing to make progress in girls’ education. It examines the ways investments in schooling for girls can benefit society as a whole and points to programs and policies that are working. It looks at countries that have done a good job of educating girls over the past decade, and it forecasts into the future for children, identifying a group of 11 countries poised for progress in the next 10 years.
