Project: Support to young girls Education in rural area

I. Introduction:
Invest in young girls’ education is the most fruitful investment for developing world said Laurence H. SUMMERS. In order to struggle against young girls illiterate conditions, their exploitation and discrimination; to encourage and sup port their education, ensure their blossoming, this project is elaborated to their intention by NGO APJS : Association pour la Promotion de la Justice Sociale.

II. Project Justification:
In developing countries in general Togo in particular there is crucial lack of young girls education. In fact, after campaigns of sensibilisation and the presentation of our NGO and after investigation, survey; we noticed that women education is neglected. Parents still conceive that girls have to stay home for households and procreation. They think girls education is not necessary.

We think the realisation of this project will be a remedy and example in women education in these areas. By this, our hope is to see women embody leadership role in the development of their societies, their country.

Young girls, their parents, particularly women of areas where this NGO, APJS is working.
