Learn

In partnership with UN Women, we've developed a non-formal education curriculum to support girls, boys, young women and men to understand the root causes of violence, identify forms, understand their rights and claim those rights and end violence against girls.

Speak Out

Girl Guides and Girl Scouts' standing in the community means we're in a great position to lobby to end violence. Lobbying is a form of advocacy, sometimes easier to think of as "speaking out" directly to decision-makers, with specific demands in mind.
