Empowered Girls Leading Change in India – The Hunger Project

Date:


For millions of girls in Africa, Mexico and India, life is often shaped by poverty, restricted mobility and deeply rooted gender norms. In rural India, girls as young as 13 are pulled from the classroom to prepare for marriage. Decisions about marriage, education, health and work are often made for them, not by them. Safe spaces where girls can gather, speak freely, learn about their rights and imagine a different future are rare.

Khushi, Neha and Pinki’s lives reflected this reality.
