Girls’ rights are human rights.

Every girl deserves the freedom to make decisions about her own life, her goals and her dreams.

When girls have the support they need to learn, grow and speak for themselves, they help shape a better future for everyone.

At 15, Mitzy is helping create space for girls in her community to learn, speak up and support one another. Through peer education and youth leadership, she is showing what’s possible when girls are trusted to lead change in their own lives and communities.

A dowry man comes.
A girl’s dreams disappear.
But her voice — and her community — bring the change.

Child marriage steals futures.
Girls’ voices restore them.

Amina, 16, grew up believing cycling was “too difficult for a girl.”

Now she’s the under-17 champion in Rwanda — and training for the 2025 Road World Cycling Championship.

Support gave her strength. Her talent did the rest.

Kindness can change a life.

In Guinea, when 15-year-old Fanta was bullied because of her albinism, a teacher stepped in.

He listened. He spoke up. The teasing stopped.

Now she walks with her head high, dreaming of becoming a doctor. 💙
