New infographic celebrating International Day of the Girl reminds us that investment in girls = results

Did you know that some countries lose more than $1 billion per year by failing to educate girls to the same level as boys?  Or that women’s education has prevented more than 4 million child deaths in the past 40 years? Or that investing in girls education could boost agricultural output in Africa by 25%?

This new infographic reminds us that when we FAIL to invest in girls’ education, millions of girls and women are locked out of opportunities.  But when we SUCCESSFULLY invest in girls’ education life expectancy increases, women earn more, and economies prosper.  See how the Global Partnership for Education is delivering real results by investing in girls’ education.
