Women and Female Education System in World

Women and Female Education in World:.
Female Education and Women Education is a catch all term for a complex set of issues and debates surrounding education Primary education, secondary education, tertiary education and health education in particular for females. It includes areas of gender equality and access to education and its connection to the alleviation of poverty. Also involved are the issues of single-sex education and religious education in that the division of education along gender lines as well as religious teachings on education have been traditionally dominant and are still highly relevant in contemporary discussions of educating females as a global consideration.
While the feminist movement has certainly promoted the importance of the issues attached to female education,the discussion is wide ranging and by no means narrowly defined. Id may include for example AIDS education. Universal education meaning state provided primary and secondary education independent of gender is not yet a global norm, even if it is assumed in most developed countries. In some Western countries, Women have surpassed men at many levels of education For example, in the United States in 2005/2006, women earned 62% of associates degrees 58% of bachelors degrees, 60% of Master degrees, and 505 of Doctorates. Education for women with handicaps has also improved. In 2011 Giusi Spagnolo became the first woman with Down Syndrome to graduate College in Europe.
Improving girls education levels has been demonstrated to have clear impacts on the health and economic future of young women which in turn improves the prospects of their entire community. In the poorest countries of the world 50% of girls do not attend secondary school. Yet research shows that very extra year of school for girls increases their lifetime income by 15% improving female education and thus the earning potential of women improves the standard of living for their own children, as women invest more of their income in their families then men do. Yet many barriers to education for girls remain. In some African countries such Burkina Faso girls are unlikely to attend school for such basic reasons as a lack of private latrine facilities for girls.
Higher attendance rates of high schools and university education among women particularly in developing countries, have helped them make inroads to professional careers with better paying salaries and wages.
Education increases a woman's level of health and health awareness. Furthering women's level of education and advanced training also tends to lead to later ages of initiation of sexual activity and first intercourse, later age at first marriage, and later age at first childbirth, as well as an increased likelihood to remain single, have no children or have no formal marriage and alternatively have increasing levels of long term partnerships.
