WIDENING THE 
GAPS
Not everyone has access to quality education. The 
improved education due to globalization is only beneficial 
for the rich and people of urban areas. There is a huge 
gap between rich-poor and urban-rural areas in access to 
educational opportunities. 
Globalization is further widening these gaps because 
those who utilized the opportunities will improve their 
economic status.

CONCLUSION
Globalization has helped many countries in improving 
their education systems and literacy rates. However, not 
everyone could benefit from the impact of globalization 
on education. 
Education inequalities must be bridged between Rich-
poor & urban-rural areas so that everyone can utilize the 
opportunities created by globalization.
