Girls offer the single most important -- yet largely untapped – opportunity for economic growth in the developing world. Let Rosemary McCarney introduce you to Plan’s global Because I am a Girl initiative, featuring ground-breaking research that shows educating girls can lift families and entire countries out of poverty. As CEO of one of the oldest and largest international development organizations, she offers hard-earned insight on why investing in girls is not only the right thing to do but the key to creating a more just and stable global society.
