Description

Barry Leonard (ed). Executive summary of the 2004 UNICEF report, The State of the World’s Children, which focuses on girls, educ. & develop. Girls are the focus because disparities & inequalities in educ. leave girls disadvantaged more than boys, because what benefits girls will also benefit boys (& the reverse is not always true), because girls are more vulnerable to physical & sexual abuse & other forms of exploitation when left uneducated. Presents a case for a human rights-based, multi-sectoral approach to develop. that will ensure girls an educ., meet the commitments of the internat. community to educ. for all children, maximize benefits for families & nations & help achieve the world’s major develop. goals. This approach values human well-being over economic performance.
