Abstract

Innovative research by ACER to help combat gender disparities in education in the ASEAN region.

The ASEAN region has some of the greatest disparity in educational outcomes in the world. Generally, gender gaps in education outcomes have closed in the ASEAN region, and in some countries have been reversed. This story of progress is the result of decades of investment in gender equity initiatives.

Challenges persist that constrain girls and women from realising their full potential across the lifespan. Support is needed to enable girls and women to capitalise on their education opportunities.
