Vodafone Foundation and Girl Effect

Connecting 7 million vulnerable, adolescent girls across eight countries to a brighter future

Across the world millions of girls lack the information, connections, tools and services they need to make their dreams a reality. Many of the everyday issues that affect them –relationships, contraception and gender-based violence –are often too sensitive to be talked about openly, if at all.

That’s why the Vodafone Foundation, which is focussed on using connectivity to drive social change, have teamed up with Girl Effect, experts in girls, mobile and content. The partnership aims to empower 7 million girls across seven countries with access to mobile platform, Springster.
