| Research Abstract |
This research is based on the results of "A Comprehensive research on Girls' Education and Social and Economic Development in Developing Countries" (grant-in-aid 1999-2000). In that research we proposed a theoretical framework for girls' education and development in developing countries, then discussed international cooperation in education.
Based on that research, this research focused upon basic education in developing countries from gender perspectives. We analyzed the educational policies by the government, international organizations or NGOs to promote girls' education : and how the policies have been implemented.
This research cover Cambodia, China, Viet Nam, Indonesia and Bangladesh in Asia, Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia and Uganda in Africa, and Brazil, Ecuador and Guatemala in Latin America. An analysis of fiscal commitment by governments in developing countries in the world and a proposal to apply some experience in Japan to developing countries are also included. We have found various success and difficulties in promoting girls' education in developing countries.
Gender issues are still remained not only in developing countries but in many developed countries. In order to promote gender equity in the world, we could learn a lot from gender sensitive policies in developing countries.
Nowadays, the Japanese government has stressed the significance of educational cooperation and tried to implement new strategies in some developing countries We hope this research could contribute to international cooperation in education.
