WomenDeliver - No more excuses! Accountability mechanisms for girls and young women

Date: 19-07-2023
Time: 03:30 - 05:00 pm
Location: Kigali, Rwanda

Concurrent event organized by Amref and AGIP (Adolescent Girls Investment Plan), , with Youth Ambassador Jim Monkel in the panel

Adolescent girls represent one of the most marginalised demographic groups globally: their unique needs often get overlooked in both child-rights, and women’s-rights conversations, and their voices go unheard in decisions on policy, climate, health, and beyond. Accountability for adolescent-focussed commitments is not guaranteed either: global processes, such as Generation Equality, lack adolescent-led accountability mechanism. 
 
This session, facilitated by young people, showcases approaches to achieving accountability for adolescent girls and young women in all their diversity. We will hear from diverse stakeholders on challenges, solutions, and commitments which advance power being shifted to adolescent girls - nothing about them, without them.
