Our partners at PlanInternational initiated an endeavor that focuses on educating girls around the globe. Theirframework places the students as equal stakeholders in their programs, this allows the girls tobuild their confidence and become “central drivers of change” [19]. This socioecologicalframework is meant to support the girls in impacting their communities and eventually thesocieties they live in.
