Introduction

Education is a cornerstone of individual and societal development. For African women and youth, access to quality education unlocks a world of possibilities, empowering them to break cycles of poverty, improve health outcomes, and contribute meaningfully to their communities. This introductory section explores the historical context and current trends in educational access for this critical demographic group in Africa

Historical Context

Prior to the colonial era, African education systems varied greatly across regions. Indigenous systems often focused on practical skills, cultural knowledge, and social responsibility ^[1]. Colonial powers introduced formal education systems, but these often prioritized the education of boys and perpetuated inequalities ^[2].
