Take Action on October 11

  1. #FreedomForGirls film and Call to Action

UNICEF is partnering with a coation of NGOs to promote an empowering film focused on progress for girls around the world. The film will go live on the Google homepage in over 50 countries on 11 October.

The call to action is: Share the #FreedomForGirls film and tell us what #FreedomForGirls means to you!

For example:

  • #FreedomForGirls is living without fear of violence
  • #FreedomForGirls is access to healthcare 
  • #FreedomFor Girls is a safe space in emergency
  • #FreedomForGirls is education – even in conflict
  • #FreedomForGirls is having the same opportunities as my brothers  
  • #FreedomForGirls is the right to choose when and who to marry
  • #FreedomForGirls having a toilet at school
  • #FreedomForGirls is having my voice heard

 

UNICEF will share the final film for local upload and an asset pack on Monday 9th October.  The asset pack will include social media messages, translated subtitled versions of the film in 31 languages and a 15 second version for Instagram. All will be available Monday, 9 October on WeShare:

  1. Engage with U-Report 

U-Report is a platform that uses social messaging to engage young girls and boys around the world – in locations at peace, in conflict, with current disasters – with relevant polls and real-time information on issues that matter to them most. It provides a space for young people to offer solutions that work for them. More than 3.6 million users are currently subscribed to U-Report. Efforts are currently underway to develop a U-Report information centre on ending violence against girls. The information centre will connect young users directly to the information and tools they want to be advocates for change in their own communities. The anticipated launch is November 2017.

We encourage you from now and through IDG to reach out to girls on social media to become U-Reporters:
