In the school year ending in 2018, UNESCO estimated that there were 258 million youth out of school (worldwide). Girls are unfairly stigmatized in India when it comes to education for three main reasons:1. Prevalent gender bias in the communities such as "Girl's can't study", "Girl's don't need to study" and "Studying won't help them as their main goal is to get married"2. Economically and socially weak communities. Most girls (and some boys) end up dropping out of school to support the home, farm work or other domestic chores. As per the first point, when this happens and a family has both their sons and daughters to school, the first to leave are the girls.3. Limited access to schools (contextual from village to village).When a girl is educated, she has better opportunities, a better future and values education. She is more likely to have fewer children, keep them healthier and she is much more likely to send them to school, thereby breaking the poverty cycle forever. She can even bring her whole community out of poverty. In fact, there will be more female leaders, lower population growth and even a reduction in adverse climate change contribution.
