Girls Count
In 2017 ONE launched the Girls Count campaign to fight the fact that over 130 million girls were out of school around the world. If these out-of-school girls formed a country, it would be the 10th largest in the world.
More than
750,000 supporters around the world signed our petition telling world leaders to end this global crisis, and 30,000 ONE supporters sang, danced, painted, made posters, and shouted from the rooftops to tell the world that all #GirlsCount.
WHAT WE DID
On 8 March International Women’s Day we made the world pay attention to these girls by counting them. One by one. Out loud. All the way to 130 million.
