“A lot of my activism is driven…. by a personal stake in the issues, but to a greater extent it is driven by a sense of empathy and a strong belief that things really should be better in our society than what they currently are..” (Faye C., Australia)
More so than in any generation prior, young women in nearly every country around the globe are taking the stage as social activists, using their voice and passion to address inequities wherever they find them. As we look forward to the celebration of the annual International Day of the Girl Child in October, we are reminded that, in many instances, girls are now leading us in the fight against social injustice. What drives this commitment to advocacy in these young women? As importantly for the supportive adults in their lives, what enables and energizes it?
In this first episode of On Educating Girls: Creating a World of Possibilities, host Trudy Hall, former NCGS Board Chair and advocate for girls’ schools, engages Melissa Kilby, the Executive Director of Girl Up, in an important conversation about why girls are leading social movements and offers advice on how adults can be partners in their endeavors. We will also hear the voices of girls themselves as to what motivates them to take the risks associated with advocacy in this first part of a two-part podcast on the topic Girls As… Social Activists.
If you are an advocate for the girls in your life--as a parent, relative, educator, club advisor or supportive adult--this podcast is created to put resources at the ready for you. We promise to keep girls at the center of the conversation in each episode.
