Dear reader,
This month’s issue is still influenced by #metoo movement and has just been named Person of the Year by TIME Magazine. Their subtle, clever and artistic move on the cover is a strong message to us all: there are many more women out there who, voluntarily or not, remain unnamed and unseen. At Girl News, we try to make girls and their stories more visible, and we hope that you amplify our effort by sharing them. Whether it is to shed light on continued abuse in Myanmar and Nigeria, young girls joining the ever-growing female STEM group, or the discussion about the new Shero-Barbie wearing a hijab, all these facets highlight the everyday life and struggle of girls. Please take part in changing their lives by sharing their stories.
Thank you.
