In China, around 80% of the children receive a secondary education, while only 49% of children in India receive this opportunity. The numbers throughout Africa are much lower than these. 45% of children in Northern Africa, 25% of children in Southeast Africa, and 13% in Central Africa. In Nigeria, only 5% of children get a secondary education.
I chose a map showing the numbers of children receiving a secondary education in different countries because I am going into secondary education. I was wondering how many children receive this education. All the countries that have low levels of children receiving secondary education could be places I could go teach to give more children a chance to get an education. I think it's important to know what places in the world need more teachers and more schools. I think it's better to make a difference in a country that has higher needs. For example, I could stay in the U.S. for the rest of my life and teach in nice areas, like Seward, that already have a developed education system, or I could move to Cambodia, Vietnam, India, Indonesia, and other countries and help provide them with better opportunities.
It's important for the world to be aware of where there is need in the world. As a result, those who are more privileged can help those in need. We need to be a world that helps each other. With globalization, it is easier to know what is going on in the world, and thus easier to help other countries.
