This #InternationalWomensDay, I’m inspired by Deepa, Josephine, and Farheen. Their strength and resilience remind us of the power within every woman and girl. When women and girls succeed, we all flourish. #IWD2025 #GirlEffect @girleffect Este Día Internacional de la Mujer, me inspiran Deepa, Josephine y Farheen.

✨ April Highlights ✨ Last month, Girl Effect joined global conversations at: - @skoll.foundation ’s Skoll World Forum, London - @women_deliver , Narm - International Maternal and Newborn Health Conference, Nairobi We shared how girl‑centered, co‑designed solutions are driving better health outcomes, stronger financial agency, and digital innovations that reach millions. A huge thank you to our partners: @msdformothers , @gatesfoundation , @coimpactcollab and many others. To the Girl Effect team members who represented us with passion and insight. We are proud of you! Together, we’re proving that when girls are at the center, systems can scale and deliver lasting impact. #skollwf #wd2026 #imnhc2026

We’re thrilled to have been part of the incredible Women Deliver 2026 cohort. From powerful storytelling to the launch of the Girls Manifesto, one message rang clear: this is a defining moment for and with girls. On behalf of Girl Effect, we made a bold commitment: to accelerate integrated, girl‑centred systems that enable adolescent girls and young women to access the health services, information, and economic opportunities they need - at scale and without stigma. Between 2027–2032, we will work with governments, communities, and partners to reach 240 million people by: ✨ Shifting harmful gender norms through locally led media and digital platforms ✨ Expanding access to trusted, confidential health and wellbeing support ✨ Strengthening community ecosystems so no girl is left behind ✨ Driving measurable health and economic outcomes—from contraception uptake to livelihoods Even as Women Deliver concludes, we will keep the momentum alive and ensure more people engage with this call to collective action. Explore the Girls Manifesto through the link in our bio. #WD2026 #GirlsDeliver #globalhealth

We already know what works for adolescent girls and young women. The challenge isn’t innovation - it’s scale. Across our programs, the evidence is clear: ✨ Greater access to contraception + health services ✨ Stronger financial decision‑making ✨ Rapid adoption of AI tools connecting girls to trusted care But millions are still left behind - not because solutions don’t exist, but because systems haven’t caught up. At #WomenDeliver2026, alongside partners like @coimpactcollab , @gatesfoundation , @azzi.agnelli and more, we’re calling for faster, coordinated investment to deliver proven solutions at scale. Every girl deserves access to the information, services, and opportunities she needs to thrive. #WD2026 #Girls #SRHR #GenderEquality

The Girl Effect team will be at the 2026 Skoll World Forum in Oxford, April 21–24. Our Chief Creative & Technology Officer, @karinanmichel will be speaking about how we are approaching AI in a grounded waybuilding tools that create safe, trusted spaces for girls and young people to explore questions about their health, relationships, and futures. Our Chief Partnerships Officer, @lqesteri , will also be attending and is available to connect directly on LinkedIn or during the event to share more about Girl Effect’s work and collaborations.

We continue celebrating Fast Company’s recognition of the Champions App as one of the Most Innovative Ideas of 2026.

Here’s what’s happening on the ground; ✦ 550 Champions engaged ✦ 18,095 sessions delivered ✦ 120,747 people reached Behind every number is a real dialogue - families asking questions, parents reassured, and girls empowered to make informed health choices. #HPVVaccine #RoutineImmunization #communityhealth

India is taking a bold step in the fight against #cervicalcancer: free HPV vaccines for 14-year-old girls. ✨ Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers - through awareness, screening, and vaccination. This rollout marks a milestone in protecting the next generation. At Girl Effect, we’re working alongside partners, communities, and girls themselves to spread awareness about the HPV vaccine and ensure informed choices for healthier futures. When girls are informed and supported, prevention becomes possible. #HPVVaccine #adolescenthealth

Our Champions App Highlights: - 5,200+ sessions delivered - 550+ champions engaged - Across 4 countries - In 4 local languages We’re honored that the Champions App has been named one of @fastcompany ’s Most Innovative ideas of 2026. But this recognition isn’t about technology alone. It’s about people: - Community Health Workers in Tanzania, Kenya, Ethiopia, and Nigeria who trusted us to navigate sessions collaboratively. - Community Health workers going door-to-door Young advocates testing features and spreading awareness - The Girl Effect team building tools that genuinely serve communities 💡None of this happens without people who care.
