The outcomes of educating women in developing countries can't be ignored. They earn more money. They raise healthier, more educated families. They lift their households out of poverty. And ultimately, they create change in their communities. It's true,when you educate a woman, you educate a nation. By following three high-achieving Ghanaian girls in their last year of secondary school, this film will look at what makes these girls from disadvantaged circumstances succeed. We will show how these three students represent a brighter future for girls like them, their country, and the developing world. We will also illustrate how they offer insight into solving the biggest challenge facing education systems across the globe: how to close the achievement gap between advantaged and disadvantaged students.
