Objectives

Our organization is primarily committed to the rights and opportunities of girls and young women. Our aim is to open up new prospects for them through education, to protect them from violence and discrimination and to secure their basic needs.

Specifically, we are involved in the following areas:

  • Promoting education for girls, especially in disadvantaged regions

  • Combating period poverty through education and access to menstrual products

  • Protection against female genital mutilation (FGM) and forced marriage

  • Supporting street children with food and essential aid

We believe in the right to education, physical integrity and a self-determined life, regardless of origin, social status or cultural background.

Your support helps

"Your work helps to give girls access to education, combat period poverty, create shelters from FGM and forced marriage and provide street children with basic services such as food and care."
