October 11th marked the 10th annual International Day of the Girl, a day to recognize girls' rights and the unique challenges that girls face around the world.
To celebrate, we hosted several community mobilization meetings across the Fatick region of Senegal, where adolescent girls and their parents were invited to speak up and share how their education has transformed their lives, and to advocate for the issues that matter to them, such as eradicating gender-based violence.
Thank you for supporting Women’s Global Education Project in rural Senegal, and for advocating for global, gender equality. To learn more about how our programs support women and girls, watch this special video!
