What is the girlgirl effect? Girl Effect uses the established and popular Ni Nyampinga brand, which reaches 3.6 million people, to improve knowledge and attitudes towards the HPV vaccine with a focus on busting myths. Fear of the needle is a major concern for girls before getting the vaccines, as a prevalent myth is that the second round hurts more.What have we learned from the girl effect research? Girl Effect and Vodafone Foundation have carried out the first comprehensive global study into adolescent girls and mobile technology. The research gives a voice to the girls accessing, or trying to access, mobile phones and draws on the experiences of more than 3,000 girls and boys from 25 countries.Are girls being left behind in the mobile phone revolution? Mobile phones have the potential to transform the lives of millions around the world, but girls are being left behind. Mobile and internet access is growing rapidly but not equally. Across low and middle income countries 184 million fewer women own a mobile than men.
We work to help girls be informed and confident, because for every choice and change a girl makes, other girls are inspired to do so too. Each girl can start a ripple effect benefitting her, her family and her community. That's the girl effect. Girl Effect is a 501 (c) (3) organization (EIN: 84-3629323) contact us. Facebook.
