October 11 marks the International Day of the Girl Child, a day dedicated to recognize girls’ rights, the unique challenges they face worldwide, and the need to address these challenges, to promote girls’ empowerment and the fulfilment of their human rights.
This year’s theme, ‘The girl I am, the change I lead: Girls on the frontlines of crisis,’ focuses on girls’ remarkable resilience and leadership in times of adversity and their crucial role in shaping a better future.
Today, let us commit to giving girls the freedom, love, support, and safe and easy access to education they want to build a more equal, just, and hopeful world.
