The young girls of the district of Durankaya in the southeastern province of Hakkari are campaigning for a local high school so they can continue their educations. The girls put up a canvas banner at the center of the town reading "We do not want to wait for our wedding doing nothing at home; we want to go to high school and university." The boys are allowed by the parents to go to a high school in another town, but they tend to be more protective of their daughters. Over 300 young women are being denied a higher education. - from Today's Zaman
