PrintDear Friends,
As we approach the International Day of the Girl on October 11, I am excited to share the activities happening at the UN headquarters during the 11 Days of Action. For our schools participating this year, please make sure to review your key messages along with those from other schools globally.
To join the celebration on October 11, please use this link: Event Link. The session will start at 10 a.m. New York time, followed by breakout sessions for IDG labs. A link for these sessions will be shared before Friday.
You can also watch the celebration live on UN WEB TV.
Additionally, the girls have been guided by the Working Group on Girls (WGG) to draft a statement that will be submitted to the Commission on the Status of Women in March 2025. For those interested in this statement, please see the attached document.For schools interested in participating next year or on a regular basis, please reach out to Margaret at un-ngo@rscj.org.
Read the statement here. (English only)
Best wishes,
Margaret Mwarili RSCJ
