During my time at university, three scholarships were available to students. Two were exclusively reserved for female students, while the third gave 60% priority to girls. I saw many male students drop out because of financial difficulties. The underlying trend is clear: in the effort to close gender gaps, we are creating a deeper systemic problem by neglecting boys and disproportionately prioritizing girls. There was even a period when the CGPA requirements for scholarships were set lower for female students than for male students. The boy child is being overlooked, and the evidence continues to highlight this imbalance. Many young men are turning to drugs for comfort or engaging in cyber-crime. At the primary-school level, skills workshops and career-guidance programs specifically for boys are virtually nonexistent, yet countless organizations focus exclusively on advancing the girl child. We need balanced interventions if we are serious about addressing gender-based inequalities.
