EDUCATING WOMEN TO EDUCATE A NATION
The present work is dedicated to a unique phenomenon
which is the first secular school for Muslim girls in the Islamic world.
Established in 1901
in Baku
by a self-made oil baron Hajji Zeynalabdin Taghiyev, the school proved to be a
vivid example of transforming the black gold of oil into the human gold of an
educated woman. The very idea of the school was viewed by its benefactor as the
only way "to bring to a Muslim woman a comprehension other
inalienable human rights". What makes the whole idea all the more
fascinating is that this occurred more than half a century prior to the
foundation of the UN and adoption of the international legal instruments of
human rights.
No surprise the
Taghiyev school for girls became an alma mater to the whole cohort of outstanding
Azerbaijani educators and mothers of educated children. These women were
capable of transmiting Taghiyev's ideas of enlightenment. It is these ideas
that will be of key importance for ensuring sustainable development and a
civilized future for today's independent Azerbaijan.
This book has been published with the support of the
UN Development Programme (UNDP) and the UN Population Fund (UNFPA).
