Girl Rising is an international nonprofit with a mission to harness the power of storytelling to change the way the world values girls and their education. Our vision is a world where all girls learn, rise and thrive.
In collaboration with our education partners based in the regions where we work, we deliver our flagship program, RISE, which equips adolescents - especially girls - with vital skills, builds their confidence, and dismantles barriers to their education. By engaging male peers, teachers, school administrators, parents, and community leaders, we build supportive allies around girls to create environments where they can identify their aspirations and pursue their goals. Our programs are founded on storytelling as a transformative tool to spark curiosity, shift mindsets, and inspire action that drives meaningful change.
