Up to 10 million girls are at risk of child marriage worldwide. The profound effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are putting girls at higher risk of early marriage due to a combination of economic shocks, school closures and interruptions in reproductive health services.
Almost half of primary schools in Low Developed Countries (LDCs) lack single-sex toilets – an important factor in girls’ attendance – and more than two thirds are without electricity.
Girls are primarily victims of sexual exploitation (72% of detected girl victims), while boys are mainly subjected to forced labour (66% of detected boy victims).
The global internet user gender gap is growing, from 11 per cent in 2013 to 17 per cent in 2019, and widest in the world’s least developed countries at 43 per cent.
Globally, the percentage of females among Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) graduates is below 15 per cent in over two-thirds of countries.
Even if they don’t have access to equal opportunities when starting life, providing girls, women and even men with equal opportunities can help improve the lives of all people living in this world. We advocate for the rights of girls in all parts of the world, and we call for global action in all avenues. “We must listen to them! All of us will pay the price for each day without gender equality”.
What to Expect at the GCGCE 2025?
Adolescent girls have the right to a safe, educated, and healthy life, not only during these critical formative years, but also as they mature into women. If effectively supported during the adolescent years, girls have the potential to change the world both as the empowered girls of today and as tomorrow’s workers, mothers, entrepreneurs, mentors, household heads, and political leaders. An investment in realising the power of adolescent girls upholds their rights today and promises a more equitable and prosperous future, one in which half of humanity is an equal partner in solving the problems of climate change, political conflict, economic growth, disease prevention, and global sustainability.
Girls are breaking boundaries and barriers posed by stereotypes and exclusion, including those directed at children with disabilities and those living in marginalized communities. As entrepreneurs, innovators and initiators of global movements, girls are creating a world that is relevant for them and future generations.
Empowering women and girls and promoting gender equality is crucial to accelerating sustainable development. Ending all forms of discrimination against women and girls is not only a basic human right, but it also has a multiplier effect across all other development areas.
Attending the GCGCE 2025 will continue to push forward the idea of achieving gender equality and women’s empowerment as an integral part of the 17 SDG goals. It will only ensure that the rights of women and girls across all the goals will we get to justice and inclusion, economies to work for all, and sustaining our shared environment now and for future generations.
The Major Focus of the GCGCE 2025?
At the GCGCE 2025 our main focus will be, a world where girls lead, they have the freedom to make their dreams come true, they know and enjoy their rights, they are free from violence and discrimination, and they are acknowledged as equal members of communities and societies.
At the conference, speakers including women who have achieved great success at national or international scale, influencers and activists will offer examples as to the capacities and achievements of girls and women in terms of overcoming gender barriers and driving change. Human rights advocates working in the fields of gender equality, sustainable development, reproductive rights, and child labor.
The Conference will be filled with interactive workshops, Collaboration workshops with young adults and youth from across the globe, Information tables, Break out-rooms, one on one with mentors and social workers, Girls telling their stories, Men holding the flag of gender accountability speeches, living life with intention speeches from successful women and men, Role-play games on overcoming limiting beliefs, embracing feminine energy, resilience exercises, Continental breakfast, Heart health lunch, Snacks and many other topics designed for Girl Empowerment.
Without heightened commitment from the international global community, Gender equality, quality education for girls, young adults, the youth, and women will remain nothing more than an unrealized goal. TAGI refuses to continue this embarrassing state of affairs and is therefore joining other partners to act by investing in women and girls, now.
