Why We Need to Act
Young women in poor families face a gender bias, as sons are prioritized to receive higher education.
Unskilled women get pregnant earlier and have more children than their educated peers, continuing the poverty cycle.
Women are dominating illiteracy in Indonesia, and their salaries are usually 50% of the official area minimum.
Lacking knowledge, unskilled women are more prone to contract HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases.
