Equal Rights for Women and Girls

About This Collection

Equal Rights for Women is a major category, like energy or climate change, of sustainability and the voices in this collection are of the present and the past.

If we don't address human rights and social justice of which the sustainability keywords and phrases include children's rights and welfare; human trafficking, slavery, and women's rights and roles, then as David Korten points out, we will not be able to come to terms with the limits of the planet and not even technology will be able to save us.

Aisha's Song

Aisha Sani Abdullahi faced early blindness and child labor in Kano, Nigeria, but a chance encounter transformed her life. "Aisha's Song" is an uplifting film beautifully depicting her story of female empowerment in a region where women are often overlooked.

The film was made by Grain Media for Girl Hub, a strategic collaboration between the UK's Department for International Development (DFID) and the Nike Foundation.

Girl Hub empowers adolescent girls in poverty, unleashing their potential to end poverty for themselves, their families, and communities. Visit their site to learn more about the film's core issues.
