Boys fight for girls rights!

Emma Watson spoke to world leaders at the launch of the new UN Women #HeforShe campaign, calling on boys and men to join the fight for equal rights. The WCP have already started, through the project Rights and Democracy for One Million Girls. Boys around the world are joining girls in child right clubs to combat human trafficking and demand equality. Ismail, 15, in Brazil says: “We have problems with bullying in our school, and girls suffer a lot. We must raise awareness and promote a different view of life... when we grow up and get ahead in the world, we must not leave the more vulnerable behind.”
