These constitute factors such as<strong> poverty and cultural practices, poor infrastructure and early marriage<\/strong>, among others, which pose obstacles to many students, particularly girls, to be able to accomplish their studies. The following are the factors affecting gender equality in education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Poverty\"><\/span>1. Poverty<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Poverty is one of the biggest obstacles facing gender equality in education. <\/strong>The less wealthy households are likely to educate boys more than girls because it is believed to have a higher payoff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It has many girls who are kept at home to help with the housework or younger kids. <\/strong>School fees, uniforms and transport become a barrier to equal access to the learning process due to the scarcity of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Cultural_and_Social_Barriers\"><\/span>2. Cultural and Social Barriers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cultural practices and stereotypes on girls deny them educational opportunities, due to their deeply rooted cultural practices. Family-related values like boys are required to do education, whereas <strong>girls are supposed to look after the home and this makes families not admit their daughters to school.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The girls are not equally allowed by the social expectation and discrimination and traditional gender roles, and this is what<strong> takes away their confidence and enhances their dropout rates.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Lack_of_Hygiene_and_Cleanliness\"><\/span>3. Lack of Hygiene and Cleanliness<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Schools that lack toilets, sanitation systems, and hygiene items create unhealthy and ineffective conditions especially for the girls.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Without sanitation, many girls will skip school during their menstrual periods or even drop out of school. <\/strong>The girls require clean and private facilities in order that they feel safe, confident and can also go to school regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Poor_Infrastructure\"><\/span>4. Poor Infrastructure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Poor school facilities, like unsafe structures, inadequate classrooms, electricity and long distances of travelling, deter attendance. T<strong>his affects girls especially when they have to travel long distances to school or to insecure schools.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lack of infrastructure lowers the standards of learning and does not allow the students and girls in particular to attain the same educational opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Early_Marriage\"><\/span>5. Early Marriage<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting married off the girls subjects them to early school dropouts, which reduces the number of years of education and their opportunities in future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Girls are placed under a domestic burden, early pregnancy and limited movements once they are married<\/strong>, and it is almost impossible to further their studies. Childhood marriage disrupts education and increases the disparity in education between men and women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ways_to_Promote_Gender_Equality_in_Education\"><\/span>Ways to Promote Gender Equality in Education&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Education enhancing gender equality is the joint action of schools, families, and communities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can fight the barriers by offering supportive and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.21kschool.com\/ua\/blog\/positive-learning-environment\/\">positive<\/a>\r\n, providing awareness and knowledge of<strong> equal opportunities, and creating an <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.21kschool.com\/ua\/blog\/inclusive-education\/\"><strong>inclusive learning<\/strong><\/a>\r\n environment<\/strong> with all students.
