The camp which has attracted about 100 girls is being heard under Nkhanza Toto Project.
Genet Nkhanza Toto Project Officer, Tassie Chirwa said her organisation prioritises empowering girls with leadership skills.
She said the project aims at empowering young girls to be confident and be able to speak and demand for their rights.
Chirwa said there is need for the girls to seek their rights by challenging the patriarch tradition where a girl child is being looked as a second fiddle.
