October 12, 2021 INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR THE GIRL CHILD profiliant All, Blog 0 Comment International Day Of The Girl Child could be described as the brainchild of the World Conference on Women. In 1995, at the conference in Beijing, it was decided that such a day dedicated to the growth of girls around the world was a necessity. As a result, countries unanimously adopted the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action. This made the declaration the first of its kind; in that, it separated the girl child from the umbrella of women and acknowledged their specific needs. Observed on October 11, the day focuses on the rights, safety and education of girls. The core objective is to make girls an active part of the progress of the world.The theme for this year’s celebration is, “Digital generation. Our generation.”International Day of the Girls Child reminds us that it is our responsibility to give them the importance they deserve and work together for their happier lives. From EMHF, we say Happy international day of the girl child. Tweet
