all girls have the right to an education...this right is essential not only for girls to grow and learn, but also so that they are able to be independent and make their own choices in their lives...
schools are not just places to learn and realize potential - some are also places of fear and violence...some girls face violence at school at the hands of teachers, school staff or other students...
violence stops girls going to school...girls must be able to pursue their education in an environment which is:
- safe
- respectful
- non-discriminatory
for the 16 days of activism against gender based violence (november 25 - december 10) amnesty international is launching a campaign to stop violence against girls in schools...join forces in the global call for violence-free schools for girls...we have the power to make schools safe for girls!
act now for violence-free schools for girls...
peace out <3
