  • Abstract:
  • Inequality and Education are often considered to be correlated. It has been an existing notion around people of the world that increasing access to education leads to a lower income inequality. This is what we have been taught growing up. Economists have tried and tested the correlation between these factors through multiple methods and trials, and have found rather interesting results. This academic review paper will sum up the results of various studies conducted on the topic, after which I will conclude my understanding of the importance of education in decreasing inequality.
