Girls Matter

  • Girls make up about half the world’s population—societies can’t thrive while ignoring half their potential.

  • Educated girls are more likely to build healthier families and stronger communities.

  • When girls succeed, economies grow through higher productivity and innovation.

  • Girls bring diverse perspectives that improve problem-solving, leadership, and decision-making.

  • Supporting girls’ rights helps reduce poverty, violence, and inequality overall.

  • Girls are future leaders, scientists, artists, caregivers, and changemakers.

  • Investing in girls creates a positive ripple effect across generations.

  • Every girl deserves the chance to learn, dream, and shape her own future.
