Education is a top priority for global organisations because it is a basic human right, which is equal for every individual regardless of their nationality, race, religion and sex. It constitutes a foundation for global peace and sustainable development, strengthens the resilience and capacity of national systems. Global educational leaders like United Nations' specialized agency UNESCO advocate for accessibility of education and equality of human right to be educated in every country of the world. But in practice, the gender gaps in educational process and systems of law in many countries are dramatic. Here we come across the religious vs secular aspects of this issue which stimulate gender equality. In other words, on the one hand the progressive world recognizes both genders' rights to study, on the other, the legislative systems and religious attitude create certain obstacles for female education. It practically means that laws and regulations in several countries encourage institutionalized gender discrimination and inequality. Though the situation with female education has greatly improved over the past decade, girls are still facing the worst forms of exclusion.
