Description
Together for Girls is a global, public-private partnership dedicated to ending violence against children, especially sexual violence against girls.
The partnership includes five UN agencies, the governments of the United States and Canada, several private sector organisations and more than 20 country governments in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, working together to generate comprehensive data and solutions to this public health and human rights epidemic.
Together for Girls, in partnership with the CDC — the US Centers for Disease Control — has conducted their Violence Against Children and Youth Surveys in 24 countries. They now have data for over 10% of the world's population under 24 on this issue and are the single largest repository on sexual violence data for children, adolescents and youth.
This is a fascinating conversation on a sobering topic, underpinned by optimism and a sense of urgency. Daniela sheds light on the global context of violence against children and clearly articulates the work being done to tackle it.
