Schoolgirls-on-their-way-ho.jpgChapter 3 indicates the many challenges that remain in order to close gender gaps and promote equality in education. The parity goal for 2005 remains elusive for many countries, and requires urgent action through a range of interrelated interventions. Yet, even where parity has been achieved, educational equality is often far from being attained. This chapter synthesizes a wide range of international experiences, to identify lessons for ‘what works’. It begins by drawing some general lessons from history to explain national moves towards gender parity and equality. Later sections focus on the policy changes that have been important in particular countries where rapid progress has been made.
