Transforming girls’ education in Ethiopia

Transforming girls’ education in Ethiopia

Gender-responsive pedagogy (GRP) considers the learning needs of both girls and boys within the school environment. Through girls’ participation in school clubs, equal classroom set-ups, life-skills and teacher training, UNESCO is transforming girls’ education in Ethiopia and empowering them to raise their academic performance.

The UNESCO-HNA Funds-In-Trust project in Ethiopia aims to improve the quality and relevance of education for adolescent girls and ensure that all girls have access to and transition through the full education cycle successfully so that they lead better lives.

The UNESCO International Institute for Capacity Building in Africa (IICBA) is providing technical backstopping in institutional capacity-building for gender mainstreaming in education, GRP and teacher training.
