The Girl Effect: The Clock is Ticking

The clock is ticking... See how a 12-year-old girl could be the solution the world needs right now.

The Girl Effect: The unique potential of 600 million adolescent girls to end poverty for themselves and the world.

WHY GIRLS? Because when adolescent girls in the developing world have a chance, they can be the most powerful force of change for themselves, their families, communities and nations.

But while those 600 million girls are the most likely agents of change, they are invisible to their societies and the world.

So what can you do about that? Get yourself seen, whether you're a girl or just believe in girls.
