Secondary Education for Girls in South Sudan

Students perform their traditional tribal dances during a cultural event in the Loreto Girls Secondary School in Maker Kuei, Rumbek, South Sudan. The school educates girls from throughout Africa's violence-plagued newest country, encouraging them to celebrate their own tribal background while at the same time embracing a shared national identity.
