“To build inclusive and equitable societies, it is essential to address the educational barriers affecting both boys and girls,” states this blog and asks: “How can we tackle boys’ disengagement from education while advancing gender equality?”
The authors present the results of their research in Cambodia, Lesotho and Malawi. The three countries were chosen because “all three have higher numbers of boys than girls of primary and secondary age out of school, low levels of learning and high levels of physical violence and bullying at school”.
The blog shares the research and key takeaways.
