KnK Japan adopted a comprehensive approach to strengthen the quality, inclusiveness, and sustainability of girls’ education by integrating capacity building with community engagement. Teachers were trained in participatory and gender-sensitive classroom practices, while School Management Committees were equipped to lead school governance, oversee development plans, and improve enrollment and infrastructure outcomes. Simultaneously, Student Clubs were established and trained in leadership, hygiene, and life skills, enabling girls to foster safe and inclusive school environments.

At the community level, Self-Help Groups (SHGs) were formed to address practical barriers and mobilize support for girls’ education through enrollment drives and advocacy. These efforts were complemented by awareness workshops and district-level seminars that engaged parents, religious leaders, educators, and local officials in addressing early marriage, safety, and cultural constraints. Together, these interventions resulted in improved classroom engagement, increased girls’ enrollment, and a more responsive and supportive education ecosystem anchored in both institutional capacity and community ownership.
