Education has been described as ‘the Great Equalizer’ because of its transformative power for individuals and society. It can help to tackle extreme income inequality and chronic poverty; ensure economic growth; act as a leveller within society, close the gap between rich and poor, women and men, empowering individuals to become active and responsible citizens.
