GFS

This just in - GFS's groundbreaking new report 🌟Girls Speak: Navigating the Conflicts of Girlhood in 2025 🌟 is hot off the press, and we're taking it to the House of Commons tomorrow! Here's a bit about what makes 'Girls Speak' such a special and unique report: 🌟 We let girls craft our narrative rather than crafting it for them - everything from our topics, our structure and our conclusions all circle back to what girls have said themselves. 🌟 It views girls as experts in their own lives - including the little ones. 🌟 83% of participants were under age 11. 🌟 It does not put age limits on what girls think, feel or experience in their lives. 🌟 It lets girls answer the question, "what do girls want?" Our report serves as an important reminder that it's time to stop silencing girl voices or burying them within classifications of 'child', where gender nuances are lost. It's time to give girls the support they've told us they need, before they reach the crisis of confidence that comes in their tween and teen years. Visit our website to read the report, and find out what YOU can do to help GFS build a world where girls are able to thrive and build #UnstoppableFutures. 👉👉👉 https://lnkd.in/esSX2_Yb #GirlsSpeak #EmpowerGirls #YouthVoices #GirlsRights #GenderEquality #SupportGirls
