A study of 19 developing countries — including Egypt, Jordan and Tunisia — concluded that a country's long-term economic growth rises by about 3.7% for every extra year of schooling its female population receives. Educating women also correlates with lower child mortality, later marriages and healthier families, which is why girls' education is called the closest thing development economics has to a silver bullet.
