Female education refers to the complex set of issues and debates surrounding education for girls and women, encompassing primary, secondary, tertiary, and health education. It is a crucial aspect of gender equality and access to education, playing a significant role in the alleviation of poverty.

The education of women and girls is essential for their economic empowerment, with studies showing that every dollar invested in girls' education generates a return of $3 in economic growth. Despite progress, inequalities in education for girls and women persist, including explicit barriers such as violence against women and prohibitions on girls attending school, as well as systemic disparities in [[stem-education|STEM education]].
