Education for All
How far can education be granted to those who can’t afford it especially children?
Education has a vital role in a child’s development. Through it, children would learn the things they need to attain a bright future. They would also achieve knowledge, from basic to elaborate, that they could use in their daily lives. Furthermore, they as well need education to progress, develop, and grow as wise individuals. Hence, every child has the right to have it. However, not all children were granted of this enlightenment. With poverty surmounting the various reasons, children from all over the world are experiencing lack of education, only getting to finish secondary or elementary. And worse come to worst, they get none at all.

    The world is full of problems, but an issue that I have chosen to shed some light on is the education in Burkina Faso or rather the lack of education for females in Burkina Faso. Burkina Faso is a country with very low literacy rates and just does not have a very good education system. The education system is charging large amounts of money to the very poor families who barely have enough money to keep all of their family living. In the article, “It’s Not Just About the Boys. Get Girls into School,” written by Jonathan Alter and published on Newsweek he focuses on spreading awareness about all the reasons in which certain children in Burkina Faso are not getting the proper education if they are getting any education at all.

  • Essay About The Right To Education In The Philippines

    1829 Words  | 8 Pages

    In the Philippines, the 1987 Philippine Constitution declares that education is a right of every Filipino (Maligalig, 2010). Thus, the policies of the government on education have been primarily about education for all citizens. Being a right, this must benefit every member of the Philippine population regardless of their language and ethnicity. The right to education, however, must not be confined in the context of being able to go to school or having more areas and structures for schooling. The right to education is undermined and meaningless if teachers are under-trained, learning curricula and materials are irrelevant and learning environment is unsafe and not conducive (Mapa, 2013).

    Introduction Prior to taking this course, my perspective on globalization was very limited because I had very little knowledge and experience with this topic. I never gave much thought to the educational practices or policies that are implemented across the globe. There are many factors to consider when it comes to the process that these countries have taken to successfully integrate technology into their K-12 education system. Before even taking this course I will admit that I have thought about how great it would be to connect with educators or health professionals across the globe, but I never thought I could make it happen.
