This fact sheet was prepared to highlight how gender-transformative education can boost innovation and technology. The findings include: gender gaps persist in innovation and technology; gender disparities emerge in school, negatively impacting girls’ and women’s participation in the development of innovation and technology; and gender-transformative education is key in boosting innovation and technology. This fact sheet highlights that globally, access for the poorest girls remains an acute problem, and, despite progress, gender disparities persist in three key areas: access, skills, and the quality of education.
