International Day of the Girl Child!
Recommended for Important Days
On 11 October, every year, we celebrate International Day of the Girl Child. This important day celebrates the importance, power, and potential of girls around the world.
Even today, in many places around the world, girls are treated as less than boys. So, it is important that we focus on their needs, problems and their rights.
