Why is gender equality important?
Gender inequality harms us all and girls often bear the brunt of it – especially girls living in poverty, conflict or crisis.
At the current rate, billions more girls across five generations are still set to endure disparity.
Useaking, Najah and Keira’s experiences show how gender inequality has shaped their lives and choices. But it doesn't need to be this way - together we can Beat the Clock.
