#GirlsTakeOver is a global initiative from Plan International whereby girls throughout the world occupy positions of power in connection with International Day of the Girl Child on 11 October. In a world where the girls and young women are discriminated against because of their gender and age, and are often prevented from getting to important societal positions, the global #GirlsTakeover is a call to action for radical social and political change to tear down barriers of discrimination and prejudice that continue to hold girls back.
