Introduction

In sub-Saharan Africa, millions of girls drop out of school before completing secondary education. Barriers like poverty, early marriage, and gender bias often limit their opportunities. But digital education is rewriting the story, giving African girls a second chance to learn, grow, and lead.

Why Girls’ Education Matters

Educated girls are more likely to start businesses.

Women reinvest up to 90% of their income into their families.

Communities thrive when women gain equal access to knowledge.

Digital Learning: A Game Changer

Unlike traditional schools, digital platforms allow girls to:

Learn privately and safely from home.

Balance learning with family responsibilities.

Access affordable courses without travel costs.

Real-Life Example
