About the Webinar
On International Youth Day, AGIP and its Girl Advisors hosted a girl-led event titled ‘Girls’ Leadership in Action: Celebrations and Lessons from AGIP’s First Adolescent Girls Advisory Committee’ to celebrate intergenerational leadership and inspire action toward shifting power to adolescent girls.
Co-facilitated by AGIP Girl Advisor Bui Y Nhi and Youth Engagement & Advocacy Specialist Pooja Singh, the webinar spotlighted lessons, successes, and actionable recommendations from AGIP’s Adolescent Girls Advisory Committee (AGAC).Speakers included Anya Gass (Plan International), Gloria Micheni (AMPLIFY Girls), Joy Zawadi (Akili Dada & AGIP Co-chair), and Girl Advisors Luisa Guzmán, Rushna Zubair, and Sharly Misati.
The key highlight of the event was the launch of the AGAC Handbook, co-created with AGIP’s first cohort of Girl Advisors.
The handbook captures two years of reflections, lessons, and recommendations for organisations embedding girl advisory bodies in their decision-making.
