The internet opens huge opportunities for girls to get equal, take action & lead change. But the spread of false information online is holding them back. Girls need the freedom & power to lead. Raise girls’ voices: sign their petition now #FreeToBeOnline plan-international.org/girls-get-equa…

Deeply disappointed that @Keir_Starmer’s speech offered nothing more than a dose of ‘tough’ criminal justice to address male violence against women. Longer sentences wouldn’t have protected Sarah, Sabina, Bibaa or Nicole. We must prevent violence against women, not manage it.

The gender digital divide is a reflexion of the overall discrimination faced by women and girls. If we do not close the gap, there is a significant risk that technology will actually widen gender inequalities. We cannot let that happen. #StandUp4HumanRights

"Girls’ and women’s need for technology that works for them goes beyond menstruation and motherhood. Femtech, as defined above, is at its best nice. Real feminist technology needs to be so much more." Happy #GirlsinICTDay! Read mine and @NoraLindstroem blog below!

We MUST increase the amount of #GirlsinTech. Why? Because we need technology that advances equality and combats discrimination. We need #EqualityTech. #GenerationEquality #GirlsinICT

Technology and the internet can be a great enabler for girls but a lack of opportunities, skills and a fear of discrimination prevent many from using and creating digital tools and online content #GirlsInTech #GirlsInSTEM

@xhmjx @PlanGlobal So lovely working with you, will miss you!! But so excited for your new role 😍

Very odd feeling leaving a job you have been in for 3 and a half years when you have been working from home for the past year! Just turning the laptop off at the end of the day feels slightly anticlimactic but I'm thankful for all the opportunities I've had @PlanGlobal

Girls cannot enjoy their full rights if racism is not eradicated. It's as simple as that. We must be active anti-racist allies and stand up against racist violence and injustice. Some resources in case useful: plan-international.org/girls-get-equa… #EUAntiRacism #AntiRacismDay #AntiRacism

Tomorrow at #CSW65 girls will come together with AC6 leaders on the road to #GenerationEquality Mexico Forum to share their recommendations and vision for leadership & accountability in the process. We must ensure accelerated progress for adolescent girls! @UN_Women

how tech companies hold people to account for radicalising men to hate women - such a powerful and thought provoking speech from @seyiakiwowo #CSW65 #GenerationEquality

"The crux is that platforms are not designed having women's best interests in mind." - @seyiakiwowo at #CSW65 event on digital gender gaps and opportunities. #GenerationEquality

“Technology should be designed & developed to liberate, not discriminate, to advance equity, not marginalise & violate.” @NoraLindstroem & @ns_kitkat from @PlanGlobal talk about the growing importance of #EqualityTech in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. businessfightspoverty.org/the-fourth-ind…
