Girl Rising Background and Mission

Girl Rising is a US based non-profit whose mission is to use the power of storytelling to change the way the world values girls and their education. Girl Rising began in 2009 as a social action campaign with a film at its center, profiling nine girls around the world, each defying the odds and
confronting barriers to education. We have evolved into a global non-profit that collaborates closely with local organizations, providing educational resources, teacher training, and financial assistance to advance our partners’ adolescent girls’ education and gender equity work.
We recently launched a new multi-part storytelling, educational and advocacy initiative called Future Rising, focused on girls’ education as a potent climate solution.

The three main pillars of Girl Rising’s work:

We Create films, media content and educational resources that tell the stories of girls, the realities they face and the futures they desire- and the seismic ways in which educating girls transform families, communities and entire nations.

We Collaborate with organizations around the world to support locally led change that accelerates and strengthens quality education and greater opportunity for girls.

We Activate change by inspiring iniduals, from parents to presidents, to support action for girls’ education and girls’ rights. We strive to change mindsets, norms and policy so that girls everywhere can go to school, rise and thrive.
* We currently work in Ghana, Guatemala, India, Kenya, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, and the United States.
