In Yemen, one female student is speaking out for girls’ education

IBB, Yemen, 3 October 2011 - There is a spirit of harmony in this classroom packed with teenage students at the Al-Hussein Ben Ali School in Al-Mazahin; where the boys happily take their place on the floor, leaving the few available desks for the girls. “As long as our sisters keep coming to school, we have no problem sitting on the floor,” said Ismail, 15, as the other boys around him all nodded in agreement.
