Education
This is further reflected in the average
years of school received, with boys gaining at least one and a half more years of schooling than
girls (UNDP 2014).3
Subsequently, men are likely to be more educated than women across
all levels of education (primary, secondary, and tertiary) and, therefore, have a greater capacity
for obtaining skilled employment and higher wages (NSD 2010). #
. Furthermore, on average, women and girls are
more likely to be malnourished than men and boys, which suggests a significant gender bias
in access to and utilisation of food within households (The Asia Foundation 2015a).
