How i will encourage girls' education in South Sudan

 I will encourage girl’s education through giving them empowerment so that they develop intrinsic motivation and become resilience to any challenge that may contributes to their drop out from the school. I will empower them through guidance and counseling and also tell them my life story of how I was once a girl like them who grew up in a refugee camp and faced similar challenges as they are facing. But because I didn’t give up, the result is the education I attained and they could as well attain their education and become what they wish to be in future if they let the challenges they are facing motivates them to work more hard than discourage them to leave the school. I could give the guidance and counseling through having regular meeting with them as a group and also by meeting them individually depending on their various needs. I will also struggle to make sure that our girls are involve in sport activities because this could increase their interest to continue coming to school and forget some of the home problems they are facing and concentrate on their studies. By so doing, I will get to know them better and see a way that I can intervene in extreme circumstances that are beyond their control. I know that together we will succeed in supporting both the boys and girls because each of us have faced, and are still facing various challenges and we all have diverse stories to tell our students. Those stories plus guidance and counseling will empower them to continue with their education. Are you ready to join in the fight against female illiteracy in South Sudan?
