In 2011, the United Nations declared October 11th the International Day of the Girl Child, further promoting the work done at the World Conference on Women by designating a day to recognise the legal and systemic disparities and promote action.
Around the world, girls face significantly more hurdles than boys. Some injustices they experience vary country by country, but others are experienced regardless of location. Whether they experience passive acts of sexism in the classroom or are scarred by female genital mutilation (FGM), they need to work harder than boys and overcome more hurdles just to receive the same credit.
Girls of colour and girls living with disabilities are at a greater risk of marginalisation and being left behind due to micro-aggressions, overt acts of racism, a lack of accessibility, or intentional discrimination against the other-abled.
Girls worldwide experience acts of sexism and discrimination both legally and culturally. These instances include:
• Child marriage
• FGM
• Rape and sexual violence
• Legalised domestic violence and marital rape
• Restricted healthcare access
• Not being able to legally drive
• Expectations to bear children and become a housewife
• Limited access to education
• Testimony offered in court by a woman is worth half of a man’s testimony
• Being legally banned from or systemically underrepresented in certain employment industries
• Receiving half the inheritance of a male heir
• Imprisonment for wearing the wrong clothing

11 October is International Day of the Girl. Girls around the world are unlocking their strength and blazing their own trails. Their stories deserve to be told.
In celebration of International Day of the Girl, Room to Read has released the full-length trailer for She Creates Change to recognise the unstoppable power young women have to change the world. Amplifying true stories of everyday change-makers, ´She Creates Change´ is the first nonprofit-led animation and live action film project to promote gender equality through the stories of girls across the globe.
