US First Lady to take tea with Prince Harry on London visit

London: Michelle Obama will take tea with Prince Harry and meet with Prime Minister David Cameron on a London visit meant to promote education for girls.

The U.S. First Lady is set to meet with students and host a round-table discussion to promote the "Let Girls Learn," initiative, launched in March.

Writing in the Financial Times, Mrs. Obama urged world leaders to "throw the school gates open to girls everywhere," arguing that it is a heartbreaking injustice to have 62 million girls out of school. She appealed for action, declaring that it is a security, economic and health issue.

The United States and Britain announced plans Tuesday to expand their commitment to the issue, partnering to support girls' education in countries affected by crisis such as Sierra Leone and Liberia.
