The Malala Fund has announced a global investment of $50 million as part of a new five-year strategy to eliminate the systemic barriers preventing girls from accessing secondary education.
This was disclosed by the Fund’s Communications Manager in Nigeria, Nankwat Dakum, in a statement issued on Tuesday in Abuja, according to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
According to Dakum, a significant portion of the $50 million will go to Nigeria, where the education crisis is particularly dire in the northern region.
