Girls Education Progress Report
DFID's girls education strategy: Girls' education: towards a better future
for all
This first annual report charts the progress we have made on our pledges in
the first year since publishing them and sets out recommendations for further
action. It follows on from the Government’s commitment earlier this year to
increase UK spending on education to £8.5 billion between 2006-7 and 2015-16. It
endorses the commitment in the July 2006 White Paper Eliminating world poverty:
making governance work for the poor to support plans to get more girls into
school and to develop a DFID action plan on gender equality.
