Girls Not Brides 192d ago

Growing up, Lilian witnessed young women in her community not being heard and knew something had to change. Her father encouraged her to work hard to achieve her dreams and give back to her community. At university, she chose to study sociology and anthropology, dedicating herself to empowering girls to create change. Through her studies and activism, Lilian learned to become a leader, using her voice to encourage young women to step into positions where they can empower others to do the same. 💜 Today, Lilian continues to champion girls’ education and leadership, believing that ending child marriage will inspire young women to pursue their dreams. ✨Join us in celebrating #MovementMakers like Lilian who inspire change so girls everywhere can shape their own futures. #16DaysOfActivism #MovementMakers #EndChildMarriage 00:00 Introduction 00:27 My childhood 00:52 Life after university 01:28 Child marriage in Tanzania 02:09 Tanzanian Ending Child Marriage Network 02:32 The power of collective effort Music: No Time To Remember, Remember The Future (Shutterstock) Check out last year’s inspiring stories from the 2024 #MovementMakers: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8ToDO5LXZ7pejZrTeOsIKAzcACc2zvYO
