Girl Rising: Where They Are Now


In March 2013 the film Girl Rising was released. It is about the power of educating girls around the world to not only make their lives better but also to change the societies that they live in and indeed the world.  I wrote about this in May 2016 which you can see here


To celebrate the film’s fifth anniversary, a new film called Girl Rising: The Fifth Anniversary Edition follows the girls progress and tells the stories of where they are now.

Here are two of the girls stories.  First, Sokha from Cambodia and then Senna from Peru:






These young women will inspire you and give you hope.  If you want to watch the entire film you can purchase it to view on-line here.  You may find yourself agreeing with the slogan "One Girl with Courage IS a Revolution"!
