Having completed the study on the Barriers and opportunities to girls’ education in Karamoja, Elizabeth Stites from Tufts University made a presentation on the field results during the September 2022 Karamoja Development Partners Group meeting.
The presentation featured findings from the fields including the value estimate of girl education both negative and positive given the cost of education and potential outcomes people in Karamoja estimated.
Participants in the meeting appreciate the results and inquired about the inclusion of the boy child in the study as well as the dynamics behind the educated girl child being able to negotiate marriage and perform better economically.
