You're watching UNICEF Television. 00:00:00
We are in Gayak, a small village in the extreme north of Cameroon. 00:00:03
This region has the lowest rate of school enrollment in the country. 00:00:07
Farm work, livestock, daily chores, and more importantly, poverty, keeps one in three boys 00:00:10
and one in two girls from attending school. 00:00:16
At the beginning, girls didn't go to school in these regions. 00:00:18
They were only prepared for marriage. 00:00:22
This is a real problem. 00:00:23
Even now it remains like that in some families. 00:00:25
Mothers generally refuse to send the girls to school, and mothers can't do anything about 00:00:27
it. 00:00:32
They are completely submissive. 00:00:33
Mothers of students set up an association in order to encourage fellow mothers to send 00:00:34
their daughters to school. 00:00:39
One of the most frequent challenges in the area is the inability of women to read and 00:00:40
understand their children's health report. 00:00:44
The social success of educated women is also emphasized. 00:00:47
I couldn't go to school myself, so when I see other women that are educated, I want 00:00:50
my daughter to go to school. 00:00:55
Sending and keeping girls in school is only possible through the solidarity that exists 00:00:57
between mothers and with support from the educational system, the state, development 00:01:01
partners, and traditional chiefs. 00:01:07
We want girls to be responsible, therefore we have to educate them as we would educate 00:01:12
the boys. 00:01:17
The village has opened and runs a preschool class. 00:01:21
At the primary school, a children's government was set up so that students could participate 00:01:24
in regard to questions related to daily life and hygiene, and to intervene when children 00:01:29
leave school under the pressure of their parents. 00:01:35
My parents told me to abandon school. 00:01:40
The children's government came to visit us at home. 00:01:43
As a result, I returned to school. 00:01:46
I hope everything will be alright. 00:01:49
I want to keep going to school, but we don't have money. 00:01:51
Poverty remains a major obstacle to keeping girls at school. 00:01:56
The strong mobilization of stakeholders is what will help Cameroon achieve these objectives. 00:02:00
This is Natasha Ekoli reporting for UNICEF Television. 00:02:05
