We stand with girls so they can get the best possible education. From early learning to secondary education, we support every part of a girl's journey — not just one piece of it. We work alongside girls, their families, communities and governments to ensure they can have a quality education, stay safe and shape their own futures.

Because when girls lead, communities rise — and a future where we are all equal becomes possible.

Every child deserves to grow up safe — but for girls, that safety is often out of reach. Violence at home, in schools, online and in public spaces continues to limit girls' freedom, choices and futures. With millions of children displaced by conflict and crisis, the risks are growing. We work with girls, young people and communities to prevent harm and create safer environments.

Together, we challenge the root causes of inequality and build lasting solutions that help girls to live free from violence. Find out how we're supporting safer futures Three girls sit in circle on the grass, holding hands
