Look at Tunis. Since foreign states (fuck France) are not invading them annually, they were able to protest and progress. More than 55% of people in Higher Education are young women over there as a result.
Wikipedia article Women in Tunisia has a section on education including the progress and the current problems they face if anyone wants to read.
Edit : Highly suggest other sections too, article is written great. They go over current inequality in employment and marriage, and also progress in other topics.
This is my favorite part so far.
