We know there’s not one way, one light, one stupid truth…

There are around 600 million adolescent girls currently living in poverty in the developing world – as far as I’m concerned this is a pretty huge issue for feminists everywhere. Many charities are doing great work in many poverty stricken countries, but help for the women of these countries is all too often centered purely around reproductive health and domestic aid. While these are hugely important issues I think every single female on this planet needs access to wider ranging options, and Global Giving has begun a campaign that will hopefully have far reaching effect in the role that women can play in a strong future for developing countries. When given the chance to participate in their society, who knows what one single girl can achieve.

The video is admittedly simplistic but I think it needs to be seen as it conjures up hope for the kind of future every woman deserves, and gives feminism an alternative, often-ignored, opportunity to surge.
