This year, the BIG group has chosen to donate a Christmas gift to Plan International, which means that 12 girls can go to school for a year.
Girls are overrepresented among the children who do not receive any education at all and among those who are forced to drop out of school, especially in crises and conflicts.
Reasons may be that it is considered a waste to educate a girl or that the family is poor and values the education of sons higher.
A safe education of good quality is not only a right but also a key to independence.
Goal 4 in the UN's Agenda 2030 is about good education for all and concerns, among other things. to eradicate discrimination in education and that all people should be able to read, write and count.
Through the BIG group's Christmas gift, we contribute to achieving Agenda 2030.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
