Multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination and violence against women 2011, para. 90
Paragraphe
Paragraph text
Women have been disproportionately impacted by a lack of educational opportunities. Having a basic education and being literate improves a woman's opportunities for preventing and removing violence from her life, and this is especially true for women who experience multiple forms of discrimination. When women and girls are able to exercise their right to an education and livelihood, they will enjoy a high level of security in their social lives and financial well-being.
