This International Women’s Day, UNICEF is celebrating the creativity, tenacity, resourcefulness and resilience of girls.
UNICEF is proud to support girls by addressing the crises and barriers they can often face — helping to end child marriage, keep girls in school and protect girls' mental and physical well-being.
By preventing discrimination, putting an end to gender norms and economic disparities, and ensuring girls are safe from violence both at school and at home, UNICEF aims to enable girls to achieve their full potential. |
As you read this, girls all over the world like Aya are working incredibly hard to raise their voices and make decisions about their futures. Investing in the lives and futures of girls is not just beneficial for them in the short term — it can positively impact their families, communities and societies for generations to come.
UNICEF works relentlessly for a world where every girl — and every child — can grow and thrive. Read more about how UNICEF is working to promote gender equality and invest in programs that protect and nurture girls' futures >>
Happy International Women’s Day,
