Throughout the developing world, girls do not have the same educational opportunities as boys. The issue is one of both equality and economics, for women of higher educational levels tend to make significant contributions to society. This monograph reviews the interventions implemented by governments, donors, and other institutions to increase girls' access to, persistence in, and achievement at the primary school level. It examines both the formal system of primary education and nontraditional, alternative approaches to reach out-of-school girls. The monograph employs an analytic model that categorizes interventions according to whether they address supply-side (school factors) or demand-side (household factors) barriers to girls' educational participation. On the supply side, few national policies are aimed at promoting girls' education, although some programs have aimed to bring schools closer to girls and make them culturally appropriate. On the demand side, interventions have attempted to lower the costs to parents of daughters' education and convince them of its benefits. However, even where primary education is free, there are often hidden direct and opportunity costs

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate. · Source: award and document years
Axis: award years, end from years in documents. The start year comes from award fiscal year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
Who started the program, and which administration it began under. Timing only; it does not say who started it. · Source: initiative records, start year
Began during the Ronald Reagan administration (1981–1989). Based on its first award year, 1989. This places the program in time only; it does not mean that administration started it.
