Summary:
Education is essential for a country’s development. In many places, including Congo villages, girls are often denied education. Education is a basic right for everyone, including girls. AusCongo Network, with the help of village leaders, is working to ensure that girls receive education by building new schools.
Challenge:
Education needs money for tools, books, and other resources. Since many Congolese families have limited resources, they often only educate boys, leaving girls without schooling.
Solution:
AusCongo Network, along with village leaders, is building new schools and improving existing ones with proper staff and resources. They are also educating communities on the importance of schooling for both boys and girls, encouraging them to send their daughters to school.
