Because I am a Girl
Because I am a Girl is an initiative of Plan International Canada working to advance girls’ rights by helping them unleash their inherent power and potential. Plan International is standing with girls and young women by providing a platform, opportunities and support for them to become leaders to advocate for change in their lives, in their community, or around the world. Girls are at the forefront of movements to end Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and ban child marriage. Campaigns also continue in Australia, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, the US, and UK.
