Girls with disabilities experience greater exclusion and injustices as a result of their disability and gender.

They are less likely to go to school and are often considered a burden on the family because they are seen as a non-productive member of society.

Providing these girls with an education that meets their needs can play a fundamental role in addressing the root causes of the discrimination they face.
