All girls have a right to education regardless of their pregnancy, marital or motherhood status. The right of pregnant-and sometimes married- girls to continue their education has evoked emotionally charged discussions across African Union member states in recent years. These debates often focus on arguments around "morality," that pregnancy outside wedlock is morally wrong, emanating from personal opinions and experiences, and wide-ranging interpretations of religious teachings about sex outside of marriage. The effect of this discourse is that pregnant girls - and to a smaller extent, school boys who impregnate girls- have faced all kinds of punishments, including discriminatory practices that deny girls the enjoyment of their right to education.
