"Today, more than 90% of girls in Azerbaijan have access to education. There are no legal barriers. However, in some cases, girls are deprived of education, and this causes our concern," Education Minister Emin Amrullayev has said.
Report informs that, according to the minister, a girl who does not go to school will get married and become a mother in the future. "As a result, it will be difficult for her to educate her children. Steps can be taken in this direction. "
He added that there are some inconsistencies in the distribution of specialties among girls and boys during university admissions: "The number of girls in male specialties is still low. It encourages us to have a serious discussion. I want to ensure equality in this area."
