The Public Organization for Women's Education and Resources (POWER) authors outline their mission and solutions to a pressing global issue: the global gender disparity in access to education. The teen-authored zine starts by providing background information on the topic, informing readers that 132 million girls worldwide are out of school due to poverty and gender-based violence/stereotypes. The authors assert that an education matters because it can provide an escape from events such as child marriage, offer economic and emotional opportunities, and supports the creation of a better future. POWER intends to (a) promote and show the value in educating women, (b) make education more accessible, and (c) combat gender biases and norms regarding education. POWER's approach involves fundraising and public outreach. The zine ends with a word search puzzle. — Alekhya
