 Our girls back to school campaign is ongoing

This year due to COVID-19 it might be difficult to meet your near and dear ones on this day. But this should not take away the joy of this festival. Whether or not you get to celebrate the day with your friends and family this year,

Here are some lovely Christmas wishes from Fernanda. She will share with us her academic experience during the pandemic.

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas!!!
My name is Fernanda Oscar Andre, I am 10 years old and I study in the fourth class.

Fernanda are you studying this year?
No

Why?
Because of the coronavirus

Now that the schools have reopened, have you gone back to school?
Schools reopened but I didn't go back to school because my parents don't have the money to pay my tuition.

Fernanda next year would you like to go back to school?
Yes, I would like to go back to school

Have you complied with the coronavirus prevention measures?
Yes I have been fulfilling it. By using mask, washing my hands with soap and water and disinfecting them with gel alcohol.

One of the first cutbacks that many poor families consider during tough financial times is education for their daughters. During the pandemic with in-class learning shuttered, some girls from poor family are being pushed to drop out.

“When families can’t afford school and have to choose, they will often send boys”. Financial hardships and cultural stereotypes about gender roles play a major part in keeping girls in less-developed countries from completing their education.
