<p>Girls' education is a UK international development priority. We champion the right
of every girl to access 12 years of quality education. Since 2015, UK Official Development
Assistance has supported over 10 million girls to gain a decent education. The FCDO
supports girls to access education through a number of mechanisms. Our Girls' Education
Challenge programme has enabled over 1.6 million of the most marginalised girls to
access education. We have 18 bilateral education programmes globally, and we are one
of the leading donors to the global funds for Education - the Global Partnership for
Education and Education Cannot Wait (ECW). Between 2017 and 2021, ECW supported over
6.9 million children (48 percent girls) to access education.</p>
