Although there are about 3.3 billion girls and women on the planet – about half of the population, that’s where the equality between the sexes tends to end. The G(irls)20 Summit is a platform for girls and women to come together and discuss economic and social issues that plague our world today.

I recently came across another video clip which reminded me again about some of the key flaws in our current global education system and approach to teaching our young children. While I don’t want to be the constant preacher of doom and gloom about education – it is important for us as parents to realise that not everything being taught at schools is helping our children prepare for the world outside of school.
