Girl Effect is an international non-profit organization that builds media that girls want, trust and need. From chatbots to chat shows and TV dramas to tech, our content reaches millions of girls in Africa and Asia to make choices and changes in their lives. Igniting their confidence to act differently at a time that can define their future.
We create safe spaces for girls, sharing facts and answering questions about health, nutrition, education, relationships, etc. And we use innovative technology so we can reach girls at scale. We arm girls with the skills to negotiate and redefine what they are told is possible, so every girl can choose to be in control of her body, her health, her learning and livelihood.
When a girl unlocks her power to make different choices that change her life, it inspires others to do so too. She starts a ripple effect that impacts her family, community, and country. That’s the Girl Effect.
Yegna took the TV drama to rural schools in the past year, forming a viewing and discussion platform to improve the knowledge of hard-to-reach girls potentially missing out on vital information. The weekly program for girls and boys aged 13-15 includes viewing sessions of the Yegna TV drama series and discussion groups around key topics discussed in the drama. The discussion session was supported by a student manual and a fact sheet that helped students converse with their families.
Following the school program's success, Girl Effect has expanded the program to 15 schools in the Afar region with the same viewing and discussion model and to 24 Addis Ababa schools in the pocket areas of missed communities with a new model that has only included the discussion sessions followed by a mini-media broadcast.
The programme started in Nov 2023 and runs until June 2024, targeting students aged 13-15.
The program has been designed to reach female students, ensuring Improved knowledge and attitudes in Nutrition, health, and empowerment-related topics among female and male students and adults reached by the Yegna program.
