| contents | Gender, education and child labour in Egypt Kawther Abu Gazaleh (Author) Lamia Bulbul (Author) Soheir Hewala (Author) Suadad Najim (Author) Explores the linkages between child labour, gender and education and highlights areas for further research and programme/policy interventions. Looks at the causes of child labour, its prevalence and distribution in Egypt. A number of issues including poverty dynamics, household profile and gender disparities are also examined. Finds that out-of-school children who have either never enrolled or have dropped out make up the largest part of the pool of available child labour in Egypt. The Egyptian education system is highly responsible for this. The effect of the educational system policies and problems on child labour is far greater than the effect of child labour on enrolment. However, a strong causal relationship between work and lack of school attendance is evident for girls. ILO publication.report |
