Boy. World. By Rita Nana Adwoa Arthur Girl meets world. Boy does too. Both desire to go to school. In the restless space of political, social and all other things affecting their sweet scholarly dreams they dare to dream. Still. Of the day when they arrive at school with hungry minds and happy hearts ready to equally acquire quality learning and go on to live full lives skilled in productivity to build self, build kin and build community. They seek hope in triumphant futures where education rises as the helping hand that enriches their minds to eliminate poverty, enables their families to live with dignity and empowers their nations to take hold of prosperity, sustainably. Education changes lives and changed lives change the world. So let's do it for Boy. Let's do it for Girl.
