We, as girls, are standing at the heart of a world in crisis, facing climate change, conflict, no education, no access to digital tools and poverty. Yet, even as our rights are challenged and our futures are at risk, we continue to rise with hope and courage. We are not just dreaming of a better world, we are fighting for it. We see a future where every girl is safe, respected, and free to be her true self. But we can not do it alone. We need allies who believe in our strength, who will listen to our voices and invest in our dreams. The potential within us, 1.1 billion strong, is limitless. When we lead, communities thrive, and our world transforms. It is time to step up for one another, to stand with each other, and build the future we deserve. Let’s make our vision a reality. At Young Female Influencers-YFI, we stand with Girls!💪🏽💪🏻💪🏿💪💪🏼💪🏾 #GirlsVision2024 #InvestInGirls #IDG2024 #YoungFemaleInfluencers #OurFuture #StandWithGirls

Young Female Influencers-YFI is because our volunteers are! Our incredible team of vibrant siStars forms the backbone of YFI’s work. These dedicated volunteers are the minds, hands, and voices championing advocacy for women, girls, and marginalized communities. On the National Volunteers Day, we say ‘Barika!’ for your passion, commitment, and dedication! Did you know volunteers across the globe help mobilize and engage communities towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals? This National Volunteers Day serves as a reminder to all young people that we can contribute to our society's development. When we dedicate our time, skills, and resources to addressing social issues without expecting anything in return, we become agents of change. To create the world we envision, we must work together. Youth, let’s take action today! Join your peers in volunteering to make an impact. It is the little acts that matters the most! We also call on our government and development institutions to recognize and support the efforts of volunteers across the country. Your support is vital for empowering these nation builders.

Young Female Influencers-YFI had a productive engagement with two other dynamic youth groups; FUYAG and Youth Parliament in the Upper West Region, organized by SAVE-Ghana. Together, we discussed and brainstormed on strategies to effectively advocate for their inclusion in government processes and structures. It’s inspiring to see the passion and commitment of fellow young leaders as we work towards a more inclusive future. This activity is under the HEARD Project in partnership with Norsaac.

I am thrilled to share that the Green Minds Project at Young Female Influencers-YFI is changing the narrative on climate change and environmental risks for disadvantaged communities! through climate change education. Climate change and environmental risks are the lived reality of most students, especially those in disadvantaged communities, who disproportionately suffer the impacts of emission, extraction, and environmental degradation. But we're working to equip all children and young people with the tools, mindsets, and skills to collectively mitigate the climate crisis, promote climate justice, and build resilience in the face of climate change. Leading and coordinating this project has been a humbling yet wonderful experience working with amazing partners, supporters, and volunteers.This project has been supported through the She Leads Program. And the best part? We've already impacted over 1500 young people in just 3 months across 6 junior and high schools - and-still counting😊 #GreenMindsProject #ClimateAction #EducationForSustainability #ClimateJustice"

#Snippets of our Green Minds Initiative! Indeed, "There is no Planet B!" and #ClimateAction begins with the minds of our younger generation tuning to "green!" 🌿 Over the week, our dedicated Green Minds Volunteers at Young Female Influencers-YFI engaged with students from some basic schools in the Upper West Region. Through interactive sessions, we inspired these young minds to care deeply about the environment, and be stewards of it. A key highlight was the students' recognition of the impact their activities, like improper waste disposal, have on the environment and climate. Feeling empowered, they are now ready to take meaningful actions to protect our planet. These actions include reducing plastic use, promoting recycling, planting trees, conserving water, and advocating for renewable energy. Join us on this campaign! Share your own sustainable practices and local environmental initiatives, in the comment section. Don’t forget to like and share this with others. Remember, Climate action starts with you!
