"Despite education being a basic human right, nearly half of our country’s girls never make it beyond 7th grade. This women's day we need every Indian to commit to raising educated , strong and empowered girls ! Creating awareness about this is Girl Rising, which brings together girls, women, boys and men to build a world where every girl gets the education she
deserves. They use the power of storytelling to change how people think and act. Change starts with you to do your bit and be a storyteller. Join Girl Rising and inspire your community to stand up for girls empowerment."Said Amala Akkineni, Director - AISFM (Annapurna International School of Film & Media).
