When UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Liam Neeson visited a class in Juba, South Sudan, the boys had a clear message.

The girls in their school are smart. Strong. Full of ambition.

But more than half of girls in the country are married before 18, ending their education dreams.

Today, boys are speaking up to end child marriage and help keep girls in the classroom. Will you join them? #GirlGoals

[UNICEF @UNICEF]

In times of crisis, girls face denial of their rights, lost futures and ignored challenges to their mental health.

And still, they lead. They speak up. They demand change.

It’s time to act on what girls are calling for: https://t.co/KcrIatnQrC

In crises, girls are among the hardest hit. But around the world, they're leading change and building a better future.

That's why this year’s theme for #DayofTheGirl is “The girl I am, the change I lead: Girls on the frontlines of crisis.” #GirlGoals

"I will not live in a world where girls aren’t treated equally or encouraged to live their lives to the fullest potential."

Today on #IWD2025 and everyday, we remain committed to empowering girls to shape their future goals.
In 2024, @UNICEFAfg supported 361K girls to access education through 18K community-based education classes, including classroom and learning materials for all students. #GirlGoals

[UNICEF India @UNICEFIndia]

With education and confidence, girls like Uma from Kerala, India, are learning, leading, and shaping their own futures—because they got the chance!

The journey has changed—and so have we!

This #InternationalWomensDay, I'm standing with women and girls worldwide, celebrating their strength, resilience and leadership in the face of challenges.

Never has the need been greater for global action to unlock the immense potential of adolescent girls. #GirlGoals

[UNICEF @UNICEF]

Across the world, millions of adolescent girls face barriers that block their access to their rights. But their potential and dreams know no bounds.

UNICEF is here to amplify their voices and help them create lasting change.

Today and every day, we stand with you.

The evidence is clear: Scaling up proven solutions for adolescent girls would be transformational for girls and for everyone. #GirlGoals

[UNICEF @UNICEF]

IInvesting in adolescent girls is the right thing to do and the smart thing to do.

New analysis shows that investing USD 1B in integrated programmes is likely to yield a return of more than USD 4B to girls, their families, and their countries.

"I wanted to talk about the systematic inequalities that affect the girl child... It's high time that as males we begin to have a say in the conversation." Well said Adrian. #GirlGoals #DayOfTheGirl

For every girl, equal rights, resources and opportunities to write her own story. Striving to fulfil her vision for the future is our goal today. #DayoftheGirl #GirlGoals

[UNICEF @UNICEF]

From Azerbaijan to the United States, girls around the world have a message for the #DayOfTheGirl.

What are your #GirlGoals? We’d love to see them in the comments.

[UNICEF Afghanistan @UNICEFAfg]

Girls need collective action to protect their rights, remove the barriers holding them back and achieve their goals.

Together, we can build a better future for all. We need to invest in girls’ movements and champion girls’ voices to make that happen. #GirlGoals
