illiterate, he fully supports her studies. “He is maghroor [proud] because I can read!” declared an
excited Nafissa. In spite of continuing violent attacks by extremists, a shortage of teachers and
adequate facilities, and numerous cultural obstacles, girls in Afghanistan are attending school in
record numbers with help from UNICEF education programs.
Sulekha Bekum definitely does not want to follow in her mother’s footsteps — and her mother is just fine
with that. Since the time Sulekha’s mother, Janaswari, was 16 years old, she has spent long,
difficult days toiling on a tea plantation in India. Despite laws in the country against child labor,
it’s not unusual for girls to drop out of school and start picking tea while still in their teens.
UNICEF has helped create Adolescent Girls’ Clubs on the plantations to empower girls, giving
them the confidence and support they need to continue their education.

and men do not have equal access to resources or equal opportunities to take part in decision-making, there are direct economic
and social costs. These largely affect women but also have consequences for their children, communities and countries.
