Education is the key for development. Education is a key for a nations and world's peaceful life; it can provide equality, it is a solution for most problems we have today. Education surpasses Religion, Politics, Culture and Family.

We met her not far from Dilla town (10 min driving) and interviewed her. She used to go to school until her father told her that he don’t have enough money to send her and her two brothers to school. She wants to continue but she doesn’t have any chance to continue. Her sister got married before she finishes her school at grade 8. Meteke fear that she will have the same fate as her sister, and cried for help to continue on her education.

She got education for three years and stopped, and we tried to talk to her father but he was not home at the time.

This is what Meteke said to me when I asked her what education mean for her; ‘It is everything for me and the future path to my dream’ and tears came out of her eyes.This is one of many Gedeo girls who don’t have the chance to see the light through education.
