Every three seconds, a girl is married somewhere in the world. Child marriage is a human rights violation that denies girls the chance to reach their full potential. Join @UNFPA in speaking out against this form of gender-based violence: buff.ly/AZJi44v

WLA joined the BNYC–BOCONGO post-budget dialogue after Monday’s National Budget Speech, calling for gender-responsive budgeting, youth-focused priorities and stronger public finance accountability. Rising unemployment & the cost of living require urgent, inclusive action.

Digital violence is becoming one of the biggest obstacles to women’s leadership. In Africa, 46% of women parliamentarians face violent threats, and 41.8% of women politicians are targeted with sexual defamation, tactics designed to force them out of public leadership. We must put an end to this, and to all forms of digital violence against women and girls, once and for all. #16Days #NoExcuse

AWLN joins the #G20 Social Summit with a clear call: sustain funding for DREAMS-like programmes that protect adolescent girls & young women across 15 countries. Cutting support now risks reversing a decade of progress. Investing in AGYW is investing in Africa’s future.
