As we commemorate International Day of the Girl (IDG) 2025, we affirm that progress for girls must be led by girls. Under the theme: "We are here: Bold, Diverse, and Unstoppable - Demanding Action for Girls' Rights," this year's Girls Speak Out will highlight both the challenges girls face and the leadership, resilience, and solutions they bring forward.
Hosted by the Working Group on Girls (WGG) and global partners, this 2-hour advocacy focused event is co-designed and co-led by girls. It brings together girl leaders, Member States, UN agencies, and civil society actors in a hybrid, intergenerational dialogue grounded in shared accountability and transformative action.
