UN Secretary-General António Guterres rightly says, “We
can all do our part to unleash our world’s enormous untapped talent – starting
with filling classrooms, laboratories, and boardrooms with women scientists.”
The relevance of this statement is reflected in the efforts undertaken as part
of the International Day of
Women and Girls in Science, a significant event observed annually and globally
on 11th February. The core objective of this event is to bridge the
persisting gender gap that exists across the world at all levels of STEM, i.e.,
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics disciplines. It is
interesting to know how charitable organisations have also stepped in to
support this cause and are working in tandem to attain the goals of this
much-relevant day. Let’s begin with
the very basic – education! It is quintessential to educate our girls and women because education is
the foundation on which an empowered community can be built. In line with this
thought, the Each One Educate One Foundation, an impact-creating Indian education NGO has taken significant
steps towards making education accessible and available for rural,
underprivileged children, with a special focus on girls’ education. Reportedly,
only 13% of Indian women have more than a primary education and only 1% have
completed their college education. In an effort to address and improve these
statistics, this NGO for women education
has meticulously studied the core issues faced by girls belonging to
socio-economically underprivileged strata of the society that obstructs their
education. Gender discrimination, poverty, distance to school from home, safety
and security, poor sanitation, early marriage, child labour, trafficking and
exploitation are some of the major issues that blocks girls from receiving
education. Efforts by the Each One Educate One Foundation This education NGO has three Edu-Care
Programmes – Each One Educate One, Each One Embrace One and Each One Higher
Educate One. It has a beneficiary base of 3,000 students across 27 campuses in
22 districts of 3 states. Of the total, this NGO for
women education has 8 dedicated campuses including a university campus
exclusively for girls, with over 1000 girls being educated totally free of cost
across all our institutions. These campuses are located in Karnataka,
Telangana, and Tamil Nadu. The key
highlights of this NGO for women
education are: ● Campuses are located in the rural hinterlands to
facilitate accessibility by rural communities. ●
Fully residential campuses exclusively for girls with round-the-clock
security.
●
Modern infrastructure and facilities.
●
Provision of food, hostel, learning materials, and daily personal care
kits.
●
Qualified female staff.
●
Continuity of education from Grade 6 to university level in science,
commerce, and arts.
●
Stipend during internship and post-graduation.
●
Mitigation of social evils such as early marriage, child labour,
trafficking & exploitation.
●
Radical shift in perspective within the child’s family and the
community.
The budding physics teacher and researcher As an NGO for women education, the Each One
Educate One Foundation is working towards strengthening their participation. So, when you donate
to educate a girl, you are potentially supporting deserving
girls like Sanjana B.S., a gold medallist in BSc. Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry.
The untimely demise of Sanjana’s father forced her mother to become the sole
breadwinner for the family. Under these tough circumstances, the girls’
university of Each One Educate Foundation supported Sanjana in continuing her
education and helped in finding her purpose in life. She wants to dedicate her
life to serving children by nurturing their inherent goodness. She aims to be a
physics teacher and researcher while simultaneously exploring her love for
music. What will happen when you support? The Each One Educate One
Foundation carries out its work with the support from generous donors and
volunteers. When you contribute to this education
NGO, the beneficiary children will receive quality education, food,
hostel accommodation, along with personality development programmes, skills and
talent development training, national and international educational tours, and
internships. In addition, it will empower women and girls to step forward in
the field of science as well as remarkably change the below persisting
disparities as stated by the United Nations: ● Reportedly, women are given smaller research grants than
their male counterparts. ● Women researchers tend to have a shorter and less paid
careers and their work is often underrepresented
in high-profile journals ● In fields like artificial intelligence, only 22%, i.e.,
only one in five professionals is a woman. ● Women account for only 28% of
engineering graduates and 40% of graduates in computer science and informatics. So, this February, make a
difference. Donate to educate a girl
child and enable them to acquire their rightful place in the field of science and
technology. Take action now! Author Profile: e1e1 Foundation is an
