Redefined, Refocused and Reassessed Education

Education needs to be refocused, redefined and reassessed according to Nicola Grinstead, Chair, World board of the world association of girl guides and girl scouts. In this article she said there should be no discrimination between girls and boys for education. She working on projects where she is trying to remove the differences in genders and she wants, everyone to have equal rights where both boys and girls can have education together. Read her article to find more about it. 

Bringing Education

There are many countries where people don't send their girls to school which is sad but after reading this article it's good to know that there are people who are taking action for this. 

Malala Yousafzai of Pakistan and Kailash Satyarthi of India did their best to spread awareness of children's education and especially for girls. They were awarded noble prize for that.
Many organizations like Ann Cotton's Camfed have supported 1.2 million young girls from Africa to get education. They support them financially, which had helped them a lot and now large number of African's girls are full filling their dream to get education.

Let her fly, educate her.

Education is a fundamental right for not only men but also for women. In my previous session the problem that I targeted was women education in my community. Through this social media for social change campaign I want to create awareness among people about educating women.
It is a really important issue for me because in my community there are several women who are not allowed to go to schools and acquire education. People are not aware of the fact that how much education is important for both men and women. Pakistan really supports education for everyone but still there exist gender discrepancies, which through this campaign I want to abolish.
Social media is most powerful tool which can be used to create an awareness for women education and I would like to use social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and Instagram to promote my campaign.
