The First Ever International Day of the Girl is Here!

Today we Stand Up for all the girls in the world who hunger for an education. Education is a fundamental human right in democratic society. The girls who drop out of school, who disappear from active society due to early marriage, prostitution, and poverty are also girls who, grown to womanhood, could be forces for change. That is what we want to see in this world. Let us not lose them. No more lost girls.

Stand Up for girls, not just today but every day.
