In a remote village in Jhabua, in the state of Madhya Pradesh in India, almost half of the population lives below the poverty line, and it is one of the highest-ranking districts in illiteracy. For Ramu Deval, a member of Team Balika, Educate Girls' volunteer outreach team, education is crucial to breaking the cycle of poverty and unlocking the potential of girls in his community. For over four years, he has been enrolling girls in school (and keeping them there).
‍
As one of Educate Girls' 60% male volunteers, Ramu highlights the important role men and boys have to play in advancing gender equity. He spoke to us about his journey with Educate Girls and supporting learners impacted by the pandemic.
