A Bold Initiative for Gender Equality

This International Women's Day, it's important to remember we all play a role in accelerating progress toward gender equality. Education offers critical life skills that empower girls to overcome limiting gender norms and become women who lead and solve problems in novel ways.

She Creates Change is a multi-media storytelling initiative – spanning an award-winning animated and live-action film, illustrated books and compelling audio stories – that boldly aims to reach all 432 million adolescent girls (ages 12-18) in the world with content and educational curriculum.

Exploring subjects like financial literacy, discrimination, climate justice, menstruation, and harassment, She Creates Change amplifies the true stories of relatable young women to show girls that they too can create positive change in their own lives and communities. 

By highlighting essential life skills in each story and making them accessible across any medium, Room to Read is taking the next step to scale our Girls’ Education Program – to meet girls wherever they are, in all corners of the globe.
