Gender:The Shocking Truth In the poorest regions of the world, girls are among the most disadvantaged.

Gender:The Shocking Truth In the poorest regions of the world, girls are among the most disadvantaged. | Students with dyslexia & ADHD in independent and public schools | Scoop.it

"In the poorest regions of the world, girls are among the most disadvantaged people on the planet.

 

---One billion people live in extreme poverty—70% are women and girls.67 million children worldwide don’t go to school, over half are girls.

---One extra year of primary school can mean 10-20% higher wages for a girl.

---When a girl in the developing world stays in school for seven or more years, she’ll marry later and have fewer, healthier children."
