Raise awareness of girls' right to education in Somalia.
In Somalia, 95% of the poorest females, age 7-16, have never been to school. Educated women are less likely to die in childbirth, or to have children at an early age, meaning that they are more likely to find work. Education also narrows the gap between men and women, creating more gender equality.
Information found on the website of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation.
Further specific information about Somalia on the UNICEF global site.
