Happy International Day of the Girl Child! Today, we celebrate the strength, potential, and dreams of every girl in our communities. In Kenya, we must continue to empower our girls with education, opportunities, and equal rights. Together, let’s break barriers, inspire leadership, and create a future where every girl can thrive and achieve her full potential. #InvestInGirls #EmpowerHer

How climate crisis impacts girls

Some Statistics

Nearly 1 in 4 married/partnered adolescent girls aged 15-19 have experienced physical or sexual violence from an intimate partner at least once in their lifetime.

Adolescent girls continue to account for 3 in 4 new HIV infections among adolescents.

Nearly 1 in 5 girls are still not completing lower-secondary and nearly 4 in 10 girls are not completing upper-secondary school today.

Around 90 per cent of adolescent girls and young women do not use the internet in low-income countries, while their male peers are twice as likely to be online.
