Lesson Learned:
Situation | Lessons learned through this project |
1. Poverty is the main obstacle for girls in running their education. | The girls are very enthusiastic about their education. If they get proper support, they can reach their goal. |
2. Lack of awareness is another obstacle for the girls. | Awareness is increasing gradually among the parents. Now they can know about the importance of female education. Now they are very careful of their girl’s education |
3. Transportation problem is also an obstacle for the girls. | Though remote areas students are very eager in their education,they cannot reach school in time. There is no vehicle available so they have to come school on foot |
