Girls everywhere know exactly who they want to become — doctors, teachers, artists, leaders who will reshape their communities & countries.
But for too many, conflict, poverty & discrimination cut those dreams short.
That's why we're asking for your support. Your gift helps girls stay in school through crisis, return to learning after disruption & continue building the futures they choose.
On Giving Tuesday, help us keep girls' dreams within reach. Make a contribution: mala.la/donate-gt

Today, August 15, marks four years since the Taliban regained power in Afghanistan. It is a somber anniversary for me and for the millions of fellow Afghans whose daily reality is marked by hunger, oppression and fear.

How did #EU foreign policy on #HumanRights look like in 2022?
Mixed picture: strong and principled action on some countries/issues of concern, weak or none at all on others.
