Established in 2003 with the goal of empowering girls through education, life skills and market relevant livelihood skills to live to their best potential regardless of their socio-economic class, Girl Child Concerns has continuously sought ways of improving the lives of girls and women in Nigeria and other countries in Africa. With offices in Abuja, Kaduna, Maiduguri and Birnin Kebbi, its numerous interventions have not only provided access to education for young girls, but also provided them awareness on their reproductive lives, rights, entitlements and responsibility. To achieve this, the organisation works with the girls, their parents and communities, governments, religious and traditional leaders as well as other organisations and institutions with similar interests.
