Schools play a major role in addressing gender inequalities through education. They should promote mixed schools to develop healthy relationships and respect between genders. Schools must also provide equal infrastructure, admission, textbooks, scholarships, sports equipment, programs, and education to students of all genders and backgrounds without discrimination. To further support gender equality, schools should promote girls' education in rural areas through outreach and awareness programs for students, teachers and parents.
