We set ambitious goals.
We focus on long-term change that promotes gender equality in education and transforms unequal systems keeping girls out of school.
We dare to be brave.
We invest in challenging contexts even when this means a slower path to impact, and we hold leaders accountable, supporting our partners to speak truth to power and standing with them when they face backlash.
We seek and amplify diverse perspectives.
We aim to reach girls in all their diversity, centre the expertise of girls and local activists in our work and through our platforms, and strengthen collective action for girls’ secondary education.
We think creatively.
We support partners to test innovative tactics and strategies and use our networks, funds and influence flexibly and nimbly to react to new challenges. We use creative approaches to communicate across different audiences.
We act with integrity.
We hold ourselves ultimately accountable to girls, prioritising meaningful impact for them when deciding how we invest our time and money. We shift power and resources to work that centres their priorities and enables them to drive change.
