Women of the World Festival (WOW)

THE EDUCATION EMERGENCY

31 million girls globally are denied their right to education and more than 500 million girls will drop out before completing their basic education. The goal of getting every child into school and giving them a quality education will not be achieved without addressing the barriers that discriminate against girls.

Celebrate this International Women’s Day ‪#‎IWD2015‬ by joining these Global campaigners at the Women of the World Festival in their mission to stand ‪#‎UpForSchool‬ and secure a future where every girl around the world is educated and empowered to reach her full potential. Sign the #UpForSchool petition at theupforschool.org. ‪#‎MakeItHappen‬

WoW celebrated IWD on March 8, 2015, where Trustee/Advisor ITA, Baela Raza Jamil, joined as a panelist to discuss and address the issue of providing safe and quality education for all.

The session started at 6:30 p.m. (PST), March 8th. Log in to Twitter @RTE25A or @WOWtweetUK, for minute by minute update from the session. Refer to the image below for more details.
