Days into @YvetteCooperMP's tenure, @UKinSouthSudan today cancelled the tender for the continuation of @FCDO's flagship girls' education programme in #SouthSudan, that had quadrupled girls' enrolment in schools, and, for 12 years, provided some hope where there will now be less.

On this International Women's Day I am thinking about the millions of Afghan women and girls who continue to have their basic human rights denied.
Today it is 1267 days since the Taliban banned teenage girls from going to school.

We wholeheartedly agree, every child deserves a right to #education. Brilliant to see Development Minister @AnnelieseDodds championing the power of education. 🌍📚Read our briefing on how the @FCDOGovUK can invest in realising #SDG4 for all children. t.ly/49Drc
Every child deserves a great education.
We’re supporting 7.5m children in Malawi to get a great maths education and providing scholarships for 1,500 girls.
Education changes lives and drives economic growth. That’s good for Malawi, good for Africa and good for the UK too.

1175 days since the Taliban banned teenage girls from school. 715 days since the Taliban banned women from going to university. Women are now reportedly banned from training as nurses and midwives, effectively cutting off their last route to further education. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

🇬🇲#TheGambia's Parliament upholds ban on FGM/C!
A bill that seeks to repeal the 2015 ban on FGM/C in The Gambia has been rejected. If passed, this would have been the first time a ban on FGM/C has been reversed.
