To respect women is not to treat her as an ornament you place on a pedestal. It's to say that she is a full human being who has equal space in the boardroom & in the bus; who has a right to joy & who has a right to determine what she wants to do with her life. Chimamanda Adichie

We need rich material like these guides as tools accessible to all teachers: I get excited when I see them. We are still trapped in defining ourselves rather than servicing. We must move with speed to catch up with the world. We must overcome inequality in education. MEC @Lesufi
