Founded by activist and Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai, we champion every girl’s right to 12 years of free, safe, quality education.
We support education advocates and activists who are challenging the policies and practices that prevent girls from going to school in their communities. We invest in their work, support their professional development and connect them with each other to develop national, regional and global networks.
We believe girls should speak for themselves and tell leaders what they need to learn and achieve their potential. The Girl Programme gives young women the tools they need to advocate for education and equality in their communities and a platform for the world to hear their voices.
