About #WhatGirlsWant

#WhatGirlsWant is driven by young women who want to be meaningfully involved in making change. The campaign engages a wide network of primarily young women-led organisations and activists, bringing them together to advance women’s rights and health and to identify and communicate key advocacy opportunities. ATHENA country focal points lead the advocacy at community level in their countries. They map the needs and concerns of adolescent girls and young women in their diversity and mobilize them to create a well-connected movement. They provide positive modelling, ongoing mentorship, and encourage dialogue and learning in a safe space.
