Victory refuses to stay silent

“As soon as I have time to spare I try to read my copy of The Globe", says Victory, one of our WCP Child Rights Ambassadors from Ghana.
At 14, Victory had to get a job loading mussel shells onto trucks to help her family survive, and to earn money so she could continue going to school.
"The Globe teaches me loads about my rights and about what life is like for children all over the world. I often identify with the stories. For example, in the stories from Nepal, girls are the ones who have to work hard, just like me. That makes me sad because it’s unfair! The stories in The Globe convinces me to keep fighting for girls’ rights.”
