Sharing the video she wrote, “As you all know I’m a passionate believer in the power of education but what I’ve seen here takes it to the next level. One of the groups of teenagers I met didn’t get the opportunity to start their education when one is supposed to, only because they were girls.
She further added, “But their perseverance paid off and at the age of 12 and 14 they’re now learning how to read and write through the UNICEF-supported initiative, Adolescent Development and Empowerment (ADE) which focuses on 10,000 such girls in the state. These two girls are financially supporting their families by working as domestic workers before and after school, yet their zeal to learn is incredible.”
She further added, “These teenagers, especially the girls, are so inspiring. The situations they have dealt with in their young lives are so impossible to digest, but they picked themselves up and fought to remove themselves from the cycle of poverty and abuse that they are in. I also saw the power of sisterhood, in this case the Shakti Group where groups of girls come together and become the strong support system that they need to grow and thrive.”
