About the Organization Girl Rising uses the power of storytelling to change the way the world values girls and their education. Working closely with local educational partners, we deliver culturally adapted programming to millions of adolescent girls and boys in five countries, building voice, confidence and agency, and providing training to teachers. We work with thousands of educators, parents and community members to address powerful social norms that hold girls back. Rooted in decades of research demonstrating that educating girls is one of the most effective ways to address our world’s most pressing issues including health, poverty, peace and stability, and climate change, Girl Rising creates original media and campaigns that activate a global community in support of girls’ education. Girl Rising works to address this global challenge with a program model based on three pillars. We: CREATE films, media content and educational resources that tell the stories of girls, the realities they face and the futures they desire. COLLABORATE with organizations around the world to support locally-led change that accelerates and strengthens quality education and greater opportunity for girls. ACTIVATE change by inspiring individuals, from parents to presidents, to support action for girls’ education and girls’ rights. We work to change mindsets, norms and policy. Project Details Girl Rising’s project in Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh will focus on building self-confidence, voice and aspiration of 2000 adolescents with the goal of achieving long-term outcomes like reduced early pregnancies/marriages, preventing school dropouts, and increasing access to higher education and career development.

This curriculum will cover critical themes, including digital literacy, financial literacy, social-emotional learning, storytelling, gender sensitization and climate action. In addition to this, sessions will be conducted with parents of these adolescents to build their awareness on similar topics so that adolescents also have access to a supportive environment at home.
