Mission Statement
The mission of Girls Education International is to expand and support educational opportunities for underserved girls and women in remote and developing regions of the world.
About This Cause
Girls Education International expands and supports educational opportunities for girls and young women in remote and developing communities around the world by partnering with community-led organizations and local changemakers to scale impact. We understand that the barriers that prevent girls from succeeding in their education are systemic and multifaceted and therefore, demand a collective commitment across geographies and sectors to energize long-term change. Our partners are community-based organizations with interventions that are scalable, sustainable, and demonstrate impact. Our role is to facilitate and bridge-build by linking communities with resources, networks, and the support needed to achieve their goals. We collaboratively address challenges to education with organizations by providing flexible funding, investing in capacity bridging, and mobilizing allies to grow social capital and accelerate change. Girls Education International believes that honoring local knowledge and leadership in the community development process is critical to fostering sustainable outcomes and cultivating ownership. We seek to preserve existing local systems so that positive change can be enjoyed for years to come. Our approach pivots from traditional funder-led approaches by accentuating communities' ability to generate positive change from within. We desire to invigorate communities to realize their own aspirations, identify their challenges, and imagine their own solutions. Girls Education International is committed to strengthening local institutions and communities for the long-term by building together on strengths rather than identifying deficits. We currently partner with organizations in Tanzania and Pakistan.
