Thanks to Taniya Knights at the Online Schools Centre for sending us this beautiful and compelling infographic about the state of women’s education worldwide. Although access to good internet service and computers are barriers in much of the world, online services certainly have the potential for extending education to a much larger population around the world.
Entrepreneurs Could Help Online Education
It is interesting as well that one of the growth areas for women entrepreneurs in developing nations is the use of micro loans to purchase cell phones. They then sell time on the phones to neighbors, and the income enables them to feed, clothe and educate their children. Perhaps women with internet-connected computers will soon be helping to educate their communities through access to online schools!
