Girls can't get education One of the global issues that I consider to be extremely important is the lack of women’s education in developing countries. This problem is one of the consequences of a widespread stereotype that the only woman’s destiny is to become a housekeeper and a mother. For me it’s horrifying that it is considered to be normal that girls don’t go to school. When I compare my position and other girls’ positions, I understand how lucky I am. I have never experienced any kind of inequality while studying and was always assessed according to my knowledge not my gender. Meanwhile, millions of girls are deprived from education in Asia and Africa for a number of reasons. Women have less rights in different domains, and inability to get an education is just one part of discrimination. If we compare educated and non-educated women, the former are less likely to marry against their will, die in childbirth and get HIV. Education and future life are mutually correlated. Educated women are much more independent: get marry and have children later, get higher wages, and send their children to school. Getting an education means a higher level of life for a woman. To resolve this problem we should use different approaches. Resources spent for education are usually limited in poor families, and parents mainly invest money in boys’ education. So, the government should provide special grants for girls to pay not only the school fee, but also to cover all additional costs such as textbooks, uniform, school trip. As many girls are often being used as free labor, and they have to get married under the age of 18 (family acquires money for the bride), education must become compulsory at primary and secondary levels for them. The number of separate schools must increase because girls experience time after time violence and sexual assaults from male peers. Proper sanitation facilities will be established in separate schools because their current lack humiliate girls. A bigger number of female teachers is necessary because they can translate their experience to younger girls. It is vital that these teachers come from the same environment, therefore; they can simultaneously teach school subjects in comfortable environment for girls and be positive models for them.
