Millions of girls around the world do not attend school and miss out on receiving the education they deserve. Poverty, early and forced marriage and gender-based violence, traditional beliefs about gender roles and more all contribute to girls missing school. CARE and our partners work with communities around the world—including men and boys, parents and teachers and others—to help remove the barriers that many girls face in accessing education.
