USAID Education FY22 Result Brief: Advancing Gender Equality in and Through Education

 USAID’s 2023 Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment Policy has four objectives: (1) reduce gender disparities, (2) strive to eliminate gender-based violence (GBV) and mitigate its harmful effects on individuals and communities, (3) increase women’s and girls’ agency, and (4) advance structural changes that address the root causes of gender inequality and promote equitable gender norms.

This brief illustrates USAID’s efforts to advance each of these objectives, in and through education, during the 2022 fiscal year (FY). The brief also provides examples of how USAID advanced two additional objectives: provide holistic support for adolescent girls, and create safe, quality learning opportunities in crisis and conflict settings.
