The World Economic Forum estimate it will take 131 years before we achieve gender equality. We say that’s far too long.
We can’t ignore the fact that millions of girls are still denied an education, that girls will be forced into child marriage, that abuse continues to invade the lives of girls globally.
Girls here at home and abroad need their voice heard, their needs recognised, and their rights protected – no matter what!

Why Gender Equality?
Gender equality is a core human right that affects all people. When a society strives towards gender equality, it creates the conditions for all people to thrive as they access equal rights, opportunities and responsibilities.
Ultimately, gender equality is a precondition to sustainable development, peace and security. Countries with higher levels of gender equality, have higher rates of good health, are more prosperous and safer.
Advances in gender equality can provide opportunities that were previously only enjoyed by men, it can drive changes in consent, make public and private spaces safer and create more respectful learning and work environments.
Will you stand with us, and with girls around the world?
