In India, girls going to schools remains an exception, not a norm. Adolescent girls in India are forced to drop out of school, for reasons ranging from early marriage to domestic work. With the pandemic, this issue has worsened, with 20 million more girls being projected to be out of school as a result of it.
In times of crisis, it’s often women and girls’ whose needs suffer the most. At Breakthrough India, we believe that in order for women’s needs to be prioritised, we need to change the way society sees women and girls. This involves working with families, schools, communities and more, in order to create an enabling and supportive environment where girls can thrive.
And to do this, we need your help. Let’s make education for girls a priority and keep more girls in school!
