Global Girl Project mobilizes young women around the globe for change. We run leadership programming for socially minded young women from the Global South.
This picture of world leaders discussing *our* future was taken yesterday at #COP27.
There's a reason why we Women go on fighting for our voices, needs & realities to be heard.
It's 2022.
We're STILL here.
We go on until these scales of power change. #SHEchangesclimate
Marie Curie, born #OnThisDay in 1867, was the:

🏅 first person to win twice and

This image of a woman shirtless in a sports bra - hugely significant. This is a woman’s body - not for sex or show - just for the sheer joy of what she can do and the power and skill she has. Wonderful. #Lionesses

Becoming a Global Girl Graduate is just the beginning of the leadership journey for our girls. In India our Director got to see, firsthand, many of our graduates tutoring younger children in their communities. This is how change happens! #globalgirlproject#india@UKIBC
With an increase in internet use during the #COVID19 pandemic, women and girls have become targets of online violence more than ever.
Let's use social media to spread awareness & kindness.

On #LabourDay, let's call for:
- Parental leave
- Flexible work hours
- Gender-sensitive policies
- Equal pay
Because economies that work for women work for everyone.

The success of our work and the impact that is created is because, through our partners we have whole communities of women leaders who are supporting and encouraging our girls. Today I got to meet a number of them in Ahmedabad and they welcomed me into their community.
Today our Director visited the Second Chance education program in Hyderabad with our amazing facilitator Asma!! We learned about the amazing work of @prathameducation and talked about the reality of gender equality in India. #globalgirlproject#genderequality#india
One of the most powerful things we can do is back strategies of resistance led by girls! It is feminist work. It is justice work. #GirlsWorkIsPoliticalWork - join this special event: https://t.co/4ekHFRBOU3
Sheila and I are both 25 and lesbians. I can’t rest because I am one statistic away from being this. I can’t rest because I know my silence will mean Sheila’s death goes unpunished.
