Adolescent Girls Investment Plan
The Adolescent Girls Investment Plan (AGIP) is a global, intergenerational, feminist coalition working to drive transformative change for and with adolescent girls. We bring together civil society, researchers, advocates, and girl leaders to strengthen collective action and ensure that adolescent girls are prioritised in global and national agendas, investments, and accountability frameworks.
At the heart of AGIP’s work is a commitment to shifting power ensuring that adolescent girls are not only visible, but meaningfully centred in decision-making processes that shape their lives. We work across advocacy, evidence, and meaningful girl engagement and safeguarding to influence policies, unlock resources, and strengthen systems that respond to girls’ realities and rights.
We do this by:
Driving girl-centred advocacy that aligns partners around shared priorities and pushes for accountable, adequately resourced commitments
Bridging evidence to action, translating research into girl-friendly, accessible tools and insights that inform policy and programming
Strengthening meaningful and safe girl engagement, ensuring that girls’ lived experiences, leadership, and voices shape agendas at all levels
Convening a diverse coalition of actors to coordinate efforts, amplify impact, and build collective momentum for change
In a rapidly shifting global context marked by shrinking civic space, declining funding, and growing backlash against gender equality, AGIP works to ensure that progress for adolescent girls is not only protected but accelerated.
This Online Safeguarding Checklist is curated by Adolescent Girls Investment Plan (AGIP). It can serve
as a go-to resource for the staff/members of youth-centric and youth-serving organisations,
collectives, and movements looking for knowledge-based resources to establish or strengthen their
online safeguarding practices.
Over the last 25 years, the world has made tremendous strides in shaping a more gender-equal world. Still, millions of adolescent girls and young women face barriers to realizing their health and rights. At a time when the COVID-19 pandemic has created new setbacks and widened the gulf for girls and women, the Generation Equality Forum (GEF),which began in Mexico City in March and culminates in Paris in June, affords us a unique opportunity to accelerate progress for all.
