RaiseAPen Campaign

The campaign RaiseAPen stood out to me because it is a campaign made up of Mothers who came together to fight for their rights of education for their girl Child and themselves. As a collective they were unstoppable,powerful and a strong force that would change the history in Afghanistan and from that stand point something incredible would emerge.

This is an important turn and girls deserve the fundamental right to education. Most especially i believe our present generation has been blessed with all the resources and support we need to be able to change laws with the help of law makers and to correct policies that stifle the growth of a country and its communities. Laws and Policies that restrict the livelihood s and rights to our future does not help anyone but instead cripples us from what the future holds for us.

What is most important to recognize as people within a society is the impart and growth education brings to a nation as individuals we have the power to change the problems we face in our society through education.

The idea RaiseAPen Campaign initiative is a very good start because you'll never know which girl has a solution to major problems in the Afghan communities. Same for other girls around the globe.

In respect with Afghanistan girls it is very encouraging to know that with the help of International organizations &, law makers supporting the campaign brings about change however the rippling effect would have to continue to reach other countries where faced with the same challenges as the Afghan girls and women.

According to the United Nations Human Rights 130 million girls are denied education. The question here is why. And are they planning to keep pushing the agenda in other countries that need their support.

India.Today and a BBC article states that aside from Afghanistan. Ethiopia,BurkinaFaso,Guinea,Niger,Chad Mali nd south sudan suffer the same fate. The thought that still some girls out there struggle for education is mind baffling. Similarly, this is no different from the country i reside in. Some parts of the country has been left with aboned project works and these are uncompleted school buildings. The project needs responsible leaders who can come together to get these projects done.

What is being done to reduce the problem in the 10 countries. What are the first steps that need to be taken in order to not just start but work through for girls to go to school.

This is the plan for RaiseAPen campaign my heart goes out to the Afghan Girls and their Mums. Most of all to the rest of the girls in the other ten countries. As i RaisAPen my goal is that the rest of the ten countries will see the changes they seek for with regards to education in their nation
