Education and CAI

Education is a very important aspect of life, for the worlds population to come closer and understand one another, education is needed. Greg Martinson did a good job in creating the organization of Central Institute, or CAI. with that organization in place many children in Central Asia now have the opportunity to have some education, they are now able to pick up a book, and learn to read and write.
One main focus of Central Asia Institute is to educate girls and women which in my opinion is a good idea; many women in those parts of the world are inferior to men, with education they are now a step closer in being equal to men. The other good thing about educating women is the birthrate will reduce as well as the children mortality rate.
Another positive  aspect of educating children in Central Asia is school related activities can keep children out of major trouble, and helps with making them less ignorant.

  1. I completely agree with you about women being "inferior to men" in those parts of the world. This is a great oppurtunity for women to get out there and really do good in life and gain a skill that will earn income for their families to support. Thumbs up!
