Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

The United Nations Millennium Goals and the Sustainable Development Goals both deem quality education and gender equity critical to improving lives around the world. Creating a world where girls have access to quality education and receive equitable education treatment is critical in achieving gender equity as a whole. ECCE programs can help girls achieve these goals by providing equitable education from their first school experiences.
