Through improved access to quality education along the education continuum, the programme envisions that marginalised adolescent girls from our working project areas will transition from basic to secondary education, and secondary to upper secondary, empowered to leave school to either secure a sustainable livelihood or continue with education. They will be equipped with skills, bolstered by strong learning outcomes that improve employability, enhance confidence and self-esteem to act as leaders, and enable them to influence and control their own Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR). To achieve this, the programme aims to create secure, conducive learning environments for marginalized1 adolescent girls, with schools, teachers, parents and communities more actively engaged in helping girls to excel and committed to supporting girls' education through addressing the socioeconomic barriers that prevent adolescent girls from achieving learning outcomes and transitioning through key education milestones and beyond. The project aims to address are:
- From primary to lower secondary education
- From lower-secondary to upper secondary education
- Into education for out-of-school girls
- Into vocational training, further education or sustainable livelihood for older Out-Of-School (OOS)girls and girls leaving school Underpinning all the educational transition points above, the project will also support transition from adolescence to adulthood for the girls from a SRH perspective, boosting girls' self-worth so they do not only see themselves (or are seen) as wives or mothers and recognise that they have a choice when it comes to deciding when to get married, have children and how they would choose to plan their futures.
