August 2023

Girls Not Brides hosted an official side event exclusively for our members [[link removed]], partners and supporters. This event was a space for discussion, learning, and collaboration, around specific topics relevant to ending child marriage as chosen by the end child marriage community.

I was delighted to attend the Women Deliver 2023 Conference on 17-20 July 2023 in Kigali, alongside representatives from the Girls Not Brides Secretariat and 14 sponsored members from across Africa, Asia and Latin America & the Caribbean. It was exciting to be in the midst of some of the most passionate and influential people working to end gender inequality. Here are my personal 5 top moments.
