Mulberry School for Girls worked with WOW – Women of the World Festival, to put together a virtual celebration for International Day of the Girl on Friday, 9th October 2020. This was an exciting celebration to which involved schools from across the country and world – including Singapore, Malaysia and Nazareth.
We were delighted to have our friends at WOW – Women of the World join us on such a significant occasion. In its 8th year, International Day of the Girl ‘aims to highlight and address the needs and challenges girls face, while promoting girls’ empowerment and the fulfilment of their human rights’.
Panellists included Barrister Schona Jolly QC, Tiffany Drake, Executive Director of the Obama Foundation – Girl Opportunity Alliance and Pinky Lilani, Founder of the Women of the Future Awards. Almost 500 students and friends of Mulberry took part in this very special YouTube live stream. We cannot wait to repeat this flagship event of our Women’s Education calendar again in 2021.
