My View of the Plenary
Ann Cotton  and Educational Files

 

In this plenary,Ann highlights the right of education for every child. Camfed, an international non-profit organisation tackling poverty and inequality where Ann works,,reveals how girls are deprived from education because of grinding poverty and arbitary decisions. Ann erupted  arguments around the factors that underpin the attitude toward the deprivation of girls from education like cultural backgrounds and unjust traditions.She mention in the plenary Camfed had launched support with rural communities in five African countries ,Ghana, Malawi, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe..Undoubtedly,stressing on the right of the girls' eduaction in some parts of the world is considered to be one of the most vital issues in relation to the protection of human rights.Lending a hand to such cases is a step forward toward the realization of justice
