Equality between Men and Women is everyone’s business.

Check out a campaign I think its worth taking a few minutes and learning about! If theres one thing I learned while in Ghana its to continue to fight gender inequality especially when it comes to education and income generation.  Why?

1. 70% of the 130 M children who don’t go to school are girls.
2. 1 in 3 women worldwide is a victim of violence.
3. Women earn less than 5% of revenues worldwide.
4. Women are major actors in development.
