Klappentext:

Schools are places for children to learn and grow. But many girls all over the world go to school fearing for their safety.

Ever day, girls face being assaulted on their way to school or inside school premises. Some are threatened with sexual assault by other students, offered higher marks by teacher in exchange for sexual favours, even raped in the staff room. Many faces psychological violence - bullying and humiliation. Some are caned or beaten in school in the name of discipline.

The result is that countless girls are kept out of school, drop out of school, or do not fully participate in school.

Every girl has a right to education in a safe environment. We demand that states take immediate action to fulfil their international commitments and make schools safe for girls.
