In Sevare town, Mopti region in Central Mali, IDECO encourages girls' education via a transformative project. The program covers school tuition, uniforms, and books to eliminate financial hurdles and promote education over underage marriage. It gives females freedom and allows them to dream beyond cultural limits, breaking generational cycles of restricted chances.

The initiative goes beyond education to challenge deep-rooted stereotypes and create a future where girls are educated and empowered leaders, breaking early marriage ties and establishing a more equitable and affluent society.
