A team of our peacebuilders in the Congo live in an orphanage where self-isolating is not an option.  The Co-vid pandemic has resulted in inflated prices where there is both a shortage of food and critical sanitary supplies.  We have established an emergency fund to directly protect the children at the orphanage.  Thank you for considering helping the most vulnerable during this time of crisis.  100% of your donation is directed towards the youth with no administrative overhead.  Unite with the global community for #GivingTuesdayNow.

Never Again International – Canada youth in the Congo and Rwanda gathered to celebrate International Day of the Girl

The International Day of the Girl was established by the United Nations in 2011 to highlight the challenges that girls face and encourage the international community to respond to the basic human rights that are denied to millions of girls worldwide because of their gender.

 

 

The theme of the International Day of the Girl this year is “With Her: A Skilled Girl Force”  Join with the youth of Never Again International – Canada in celebrating the 1.1 billion girls worldwide and raise awareness of the challenges girls face worldwide.  

 

“On this International Day of the Girl, let us recommit to supporting every girl to develop her skills, enter the workforce on equal terms and reach her full potential.” — UN Secretary-General António Guterres

 

With your help today, youth of Never Again International – Canada can continue to stand up for human rights and empower girls around the world to have access to education.  

“Educating girls isn’t just good for girls, it’s good for all of us.” ~ Michelle Obama

         

When over 90% of girls in conflict areas are out of school as compared to their peers in nations without conflict, our youth peace builders are raising awareness about the unlocked potential that girls in conflict zones have to make a difference to end wars and human rights abuses and meet the Sustainable Development Goals.

October 11th, 2018 marks the sixth year that the international community has joined together to highlight the challenges girls face.  

Echoing the words of UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, “Peace is something we must all work for, every day.”

Join the youth of Never Again International – Canada in committing to participating in activities every day that help to build sustainable peace.
