Abstract	The Regional Review Meeting on the Situation of Education of Girls was attended by participants from eight Asian countries, six of which have low female participation and retention rates. Participants from Afghanistan, Bhutan, China, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, and Thailand presented reports based on the findings of national studies, policies, plans, and future policy directions. These summary reports addressed access to education, factors affecting the participation and retention of girls, national programs to improve girls' participation in schools, trends, and priorities. A review and analysis of the current situation included the topics of barriers to educational opportunity, community participation, incentives, the training of teachers, and curriculum development. Some areas of concern which were addressed were access and equity, social attitudes, management, monitoring, evaluation, and resources. Specific strategies for improvement were identified, and formulated proposals for regional cooperation and collaboration were presented. (JHP)
