Why is it important?
It is useful to know that the oldest civilization on earth was prosperous because every individual was recognized and respected. Today's women need to know their past in order to claim their intellectual, speech and doctrine liberty as well as their contribution in society.
Perspectives
Teach these aspects in schools so as to show girls that the world was not always like what they see now and that there is a way to improve society.
