Understanding that school closures were putting children’s education and emotional well-being at risk, #SAVEWITHSTORIES in Arabic was launched in Egypt on International Children’s Day, November 20th 2020.
This #WorldChildrenDay2020 comes amid a global pandemic and instability, but our children are staying stronger than ever! Listen to how they’re getting through the tough days and their dreams for the future.
This year, Save the Children’s moto for the International Day of the Girl is “Unscripted and Unstoppable Girl Force.” Today, more girls are getting educated, fewer are getting married or becoming mothers while still children, and more are gaining the skills they need to excel in their careers.
