I was invited by Plan International to join their advocacy for women’s rights and their fight against abuse. Alas, I wasn’t able to join their 2014 report and update because it was Geof’s graduation practice that day. But I’m fully committed in supporting their campaign and future ones! So I’m sharing with you their update! As part of its commemoration of Women‟s Month, Plan International shared its 2014 report on the State of the World‟s Girls last March 26. Paulene Santos, the Campaigns Coordinator of Plan International-Philippines, shared some startling facts about the pervasive issues that girls around the world continue to face every day; namely, the lack of access to quality education,…
