It is a common known fact that education plays a major role in the success of an individual. However in many countries the gap between male and female literacy levels exists because women have been discouraged from receiving the same educational benefits as men. Women also have less of an opportunity to pursue an education due to financial constraints, and often the males of the family are educated and the females are not.
Providing education to both males and females can have a huge impact on the development of a nation. Through education, individuals regardless of gender have the power to make skilled, educated decisions, make better choices, and develop new ideas and concepts. Through education women can pass down their knowledge and skills to their families, building a stronger, confident and independent family. Educated women can also have an impact on the financial stability of a family unit, as she will also be able to join the work force and increase the standard of living for her family.
