They tell more girls in primary school and community programs about the importance of education. But there are still many nations where less than one in four women can read and write. They include Niger, Benin, Mali and Burkina Faso.
Miss Rose says these countries need literacy programs that target women. She says there is a huge need for illiterate young women and adults to have a second chance to read and write.
Liberia for example, has launched a second-chance literacy campaign to teach women. The students never went to school, or they were forced to leave school because of ten years of civil war in the country.
Lonee Smith is 35 years old. She is a student at the adult literacy school at the Firestone Liberia Natural Rubber Company in Margibi County. Her parents did not send her to school, and she could not read or write.
Now she is in the first grade and has those skills. She sells her goods at the market and can now count her profit without help. She says having a second chance at education has changed her life.
Liberia's Ministry of Education says 5,000 women currently study in adult literacy programs across the country.一些国家,比如塞内加尔,已经通过政府的努力改善了女性文盲比率。他们向小学及社区计划里更多的女孩表明了教育的重要性。但仍有许多国家只有不到四分之一的女性具有读写能力。这些国家包括尼日尔、贝宁、马里和布基纳法索。
罗斯女士表示这些国家需要开展针对女性的扫盲计划。她说这些国家急需让年轻女性以及成年人拥有再次学习读书和写字的机会。
比如,利比里亚已经开展二次扫盲运动,旨在使女性接受教育。这些学生要么从未上过学,要么就是因为国内的十年战乱而被迫辍学。
朗尼·史密斯今年35岁。她是位于马吉比县的凡士通利比里亚天然橡胶公司成年扫盲学校的一名学生。她的父母以前没有让她上过学,所以在这之前她不会读书写字。
现在的她一年级在读并且已经掌握了读写技能。靠在市集卖东西营生,她如今已经可以在无人帮助的情况下结算利润。她说二次接受教育改变了她的人生。
利比里亚教育部表示,目前全国有5000名女性在成人扫盲计划中学习。
