We would love to introduce to you our UK Partnerships Officer, Laura๐Ÿคฉ

As teachers we had been given out stickers through the week to celebrate their hard work and because it was the last day the kids put stickers on my face for being a good teacher. It was so sad to say goodbye to them. These two girls were really enthusiastic about learning English, they said they want to be tour guides in the city when they are older.

It is easy to get disheartened by the state of the world sometimes. Meeting people who care and being a part of a team that aims to make a meaningful impact reminds me how powerful we truly are. When we try to spread love and kindness to others and the planet we make the world a better place.

When we act like global citizens, we are saying there is no limit to who I will try to help, or where I will try protect. Recognizing that the planet is my home, and it goes way beyond the small town in which I grew up. Being a global citizen is acting mindfully with the intention of avoiding negative impacts.

Today on the 11th of October is The . This day gives attention to the need to address the challenges faced by girls and to promote the empowerment of girlsโ€™ and their human rightsโœจ

Girls are breaking boundaries and hurdles posed by stereotypes, including those living in marginalised communitiesโ€ผ๏ธ Girls are creating a world that is pertinent to them and the generations to come. When girls are supported effectively, they have the potential to change the world๐ŸŒ

While the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the digital platforms for connecting, over 2.2 billion people below the age of 25 still do not have internet access at home๐Ÿ’ป ๐†๐ข๐ซ๐ฅ๐ฌ ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ฆ๐จ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฅ๐ข๐ค๐ž๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ญ๐จ ๐›๐ž ๐œ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐จ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ. The gender gap for global internet users grew from 11% in 2013 to 17% in 2019 and this is lingering around 43% in some of the worldโ€™s most least developed countries.

But the gender digital divide is about more than just staying connected, itโ€™s also about learning and income opportunities. Girls are less likely to use and own a device than boys, limiting their access to tech-related jobs and skills. We must address this exclusion and inequity that stretches across countries and generations so that we can lead the world into a digital revolution for all๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ
