On behalf of Plan West Africa we have documented the progress of Plan’s Girls Making Media Project in Liberia, Sierra Leone, Togo and Ghana. Our professional local filmcrews visited the different projects and spoke with participants and trainers.
The goal of the Girls Making Media Project is to contribute to the elimination of gender discrimination and low quality media reporting on adolescent girls’ issues in West Africa. The three year project directly benefits at least 140 adolescent girls and 30 adult journalists in each country.

Great initiative. It is always nice to read, watch and listen to initiatives in Africa that really impact on people’s lives. Especially the youth. Giving the youth a voice is extremely important towards economic, social and political empowerment.
