We believe in a world where every girl has the power to determine her own future.
The triple threat of conflict, climate change and COVID-19 is putting girls' ability to survive, learn and be protected at risk. But there is hope for girls around the world. We are driving equality with and for girls, creating more locally-led and gender transformative ways of working to address inequality.
Women and girls’ empowerment is key to building a more just, peaceful and sustainable future, and Save the Children is working to promote the realisation of girls’ rights through programming and advocacy work for sustainable, systemic change.
Save the Children UK's Women's Network, a chapter of our female philanthropic global movement ONE HUNDRED STRONG, brings together women who are passionate about gender equality to connect, learn, advocate and raise funds specifically to help us see more women and girls empowered around the world through the innovative Girls' Impact Fund.
The Girls’ Impact Fund paves the way for a new approach to how we support girls, channelling specific funding for programmes and activities designed for, and with, girls and dedicating necessary resource to achieving our ambitions on gender equality.
GIRLS LEADING CHANGE
Asia*, a student from Zanzibar, is a member of her local children’s council, where she campaigns on issues affecting children and advocates for positive change. According to Asia, being in the children council has made her strong and confident through the knowledge and skills acquired helping her to achieve her life dreams.
“As a young girl I was not confident enough to stand in front of people and speak, but now I do that with confidence.
I have learned and benefited a lot from these councils because it's where we, as children, get a chance discuss issues that affect us."
Asia, member of Save the Children's Children Council
