Girl Rising is a global movement for girls' education, based primarily around a 2013 feature film, Girl Rising.
Every year, approximately 15 million girls are forced into early marriage, puting an end to their formal education and limiting their access to future opportunities. Forced marriage perpetuates cycles of poverty, gender roles and power dynamics, and also increases risks of violence and abuse.
Girl Rising’s stories tell the true stories of girls around the world, and the barriers they face in their quest for an education – poverty, forced marriage, violence, trafficking, and bias. The films and companion resources help students understand human rights and social justice.
