Why we should fight for girls’ rights

For the first show of 2025, we focus on that often forgotten issue; girls’ rights. Our team in Pakistan reports how climate change is resulting in an increase in child marriage in the country. We also head to Senegal, where the case of a nine-year-old girl, pregnant as a result of the rape of her Koran teacher, has sparked outrage, especially from human rights groups. Plus, Annette Young talks to Memory Banda, a girls’ rights activist in Malawi about how to engage communities in strengthening and protecting girls’ rights.
