"Education for girls is the future of Africa", Angelique Kidjo, founder of the Batonga project says. Education can totally
change the life of a young girl living in Africa by giving her invaluable information about protecting herself from HIV and AIDS, allowing her to develop skills to escape the cycle of poverty, and thus, giving the next generation a leg up in the world.
World Education is an implementing partner of Batonga. For over 50 years, World Education's women and girls' initiatives have improved the lives of
women and girls in Africa, Asia, and the United States.
