CEO’s Message: International Day of the Girl Child

Today is International Day of the Girl Child themed "Digital generation. Our generation." The question we must ask ourselves is what have we done or what are we doing for the girl child?

How are we supporting them to bridge the digital divide? We need to move beyond the rhetoric and talk shops and do meaningful work that changes the lives of the girl child, especially those for whom access to technology is still a pipe dream and seems like something beyond their reach.

I challenge everyone who has the means and every woman leader  to adopt a girl child who needs a mentor, a coach and someone to model how success can be achieved even when one's background is challenging.
