| description | Given the significance of female
education for development, there is an enormous need for
data across countries that can be used to inform policy
discussions within and among individual countries. Nowhere,
perhaps is this need greater than in sub - Saharan Africa
(SSA) where female participation in education is
inordinately low, and where disparities between females and
males vary greatly among countries. the report previewed in
this article responds in two ways to the need for statistics
on female education. First, it defines statistical
indicators that can be used to describe the level of female
participation and the disparities between males and females
in education systems. As one form for these indicators, the
report introduces the concept of the gender ratio as a
generic tool for comparing male and female participation in
education across all indicators used to assess the
performance of education systems. Second, the report
presents data from existing sources for the forty-six
countries in sub - Saharan Africa. |
