    VSO - Sharing Skills, Changing Lives

    Our programme initiatives > Girls' empowerment in Zambia

    VSO together with its partner Kabompo High School in Northwestern Province identified gender inequality as a main barrier to girl students achieving acceptable pass rates.

    VSO volunteers and Kabompo High School worked together to design a girls’ empowerment programme to give girls practical ways of tackling gender inequality. The development of the programme was based on close linkages with the wider community to find out exactly what problems girls face at school and outside of school. This ensured that the programme addressed the specific needs of the girls.
