Our Girl Global

 

Our Girl Global is in the early stages of achieving results through partnerships in countries outside of the UK.

So far Our Girl Global’s biggest outcomes have been through the work of Our Girl Pakistan and through the dissemination of the Our Girl campaign at the Hague and through the work of human rights activist Mandy Sanghera.  In the future Our Girl will be disseminated via partners in Canada, the US and Europe.
