Presentation transcript:

What effect would gender equitable education in developing countries have on our world?

If women had equal rights, it would be expanding women’s opportunities in public works, agriculture, finance, and other sectors that accelerates economic growth, helping their country. Also when girls are kept in school, to be educated, they aren’t getting married or having children. The more girls having children, the more the population grows. There country might not be able to support a large population. Also women in developing countries are 300 time more likely to die during childbirth.

What is being done to achieve gender equity? Gender equity can be achieved by  Educating girls  Increasing literacy rates among women  Increasing early childhood development interventions  Increasing women’s labor forced participation and strengthening labor policies affecting women  Improving women’s access to credit, land and other resources  Improving women’s political rights and participation  Expanding reproductive health programs and family support policies.

Charity organisations helping to improve gender equity.  CARE Australia CARE is a charity that supports women and girls to create sustainable outcomes in poor communities. In 2011, CARE assisted 122 million people across 84 countries through 1015 poverty-fighting projects. CARE Australia manages programs in over 20 countries in South-East Asia, Africa and the Middle East.
