Global MPH Public Health Practice Coordinator Amy Joyce has contributed to Plan Canada's second annual report in their nine-year initiative examining gender discrimination and girls' rights around the world.
Released in commeration of the International Day of the Family, the report, Because I am a Girl: Girls in the Shadow of War, reveals why and how girls' rights are being violated in countries affected by armed conflict. It shows clearly what is lost when girls' voices are ignored and their capacities and skills go unrecognized and underdeveloped.
Amy served as a global researcher for both the newly relased 2008 report and the 2007 version, The State of the World's Girls.
Plan Canada is one of the world's largest international, child-centered development organizations. For more information, visit http://plancanada.ca.
