Learning and resources on gender in education
How does education change gender norms? It creates a potentially virtuous cycle, whereby education leads to changes in gender norms, and these changed norms contribute to improved learning outcomes. But this process is not automatic; prevailing gender norms and gender discriminatory practices in schools and in wider society can undermine the potential of education to bring about changes. This thematic guide, Education and Gender Norms Change, brings together the evidence on this issue to unpack the concepts around gender norm change and educational processes.
