Adolescent girls are one of the most marginalised demographic groups in the world, despite making up 33% of the global female population. Often, adolescent girls fall through the cracks, with neither child rights nor women’s rights development programming sufficiently responding to their unique needs.

We want to change this. To truly live in a world where girls have the voice, choice, and agency to determine their own futures, they must be specifically recognised in social change agendas, and they must be included in conversations that concern them.
