Well admittedly I don’t know much about this summit so I couldn’t tell you much about who is attending from where, but as far as I know in most of the Arab world (can’t speak for Southeast Asia or the Indian Peninsula) educational opportunities aren’t distinguished by gender. Now there are cultural issues that depending on household can cause girls to have fewer opportunities than boys, but it’s nowhere near what one would imagine seeing what the Taliban are doing in Afghanistan. The Taliban are, by all means, the weird ones for messing around with girls’ education.

The cultural issues need to be addressed in a major way and they are not getting addressed.
They kind of are, at least in my country, but these things take time.
