WOMEN’S AND GIRLS RIGHT & AGENCY IN HUMANITARIAN ACTION: Adovocating for the rights and dignity of Children, adolescent girls and women is my desire.

Margaret Akpa

An estimated 67 million woman and girls are in need of humanitarian assistance impacted by domestic Voilence, unintended pregnancy,maternal mortality,unsafe abortions and child early and forced marriages.

To make our society a better place we have to look into marriages & Family life to come up with immediate, long term and possibly preventable impacts of this realities and needs of women and girls are to be treated with the same urgency as emergencies and give opportunities to women to better themselves and their children for the good of society at large.

As an advocate for women’s and adolescent girls right as a human rights lawyers, I call on women’s rights organisation, civil society organization to work together to put women’s and girls rights at the centre of humanitarian response.
