Summary

Education transforms human beings from ignorance to enlightenment and it's an important factor that fuels both social change and economic growth. In Rural India, girls face discrimination because of being born as girl. This leaves them at the bottom of the social ladder in terms of access to rights and developments. Education is one of the most significant means of empowering any individual or community in general and women & girls in particular.
