 The most important finding is that for many girls and young women both education and migration are important dimensions of their lives and that the interaction can lead to multiple outcomes. Put simply, migration can help girls to continue their education and migration for work may even be seen as a form of education in its own right. Think of taking up informal apprenticeships but also the skills and experiences young women may acquire through migrant work and through the general experience of migration. However it's not all good news for some girls migration may come in the way of continuing their schooling and it may even indeed end schooling. In terms of policy and intervention this suggests the following. Most importantly migration and education I would say are not necessarily mutually exclusive so rather than having a policy focus on keeping girls and young women from moving we might want to ask how we can support making this combination work better. Now first for schools and especially rural schools these schools may have a task in preparing girls for migration that will quite properly enter the life at some point. Second we really need to think about the way education is provided. How can this be done better to allow young women to combine migrant work and education more effectively and realistically? Third we know very little or next to nothing about various informal apprenticeships yet these often these apprenticeships are often the most realistic options for rural girls and young women and especially those from poorer backgrounds to continue their education. So for this we really need a bit more research in order to provide effective support for these already existing practices.
