Every girl has unlimited potential. But far too many don’t have what they need to be safe, healthy and realize their dreams. Farsana is a seventh-grade student at a school in the northern province of Cabo Delgado in Mozambique. One of the biggest barriers to her education? 💧 Access to water. “It is not easy. Some weeks we have no water at all. We cannot wash our hands. We have no water to drink. We then have to go and find water somewhere in the village. It is so difficult to concentrate when I don’t have any water to drink.” Read Farsana's story and join us in standing with girls around the world today, and every day. ➡️ https://bit.ly/3NphjZm #IDG #InternationalDayoftheGirl #DayOfTheGirl #girls #InvestInGirls #UnlimitedPotential #equality #GenderEquality #EducationForAll Sarah Easter
