Breakthrough

Breakthrough works to change the social norms that hold women and girls back from reaching their full potential. It works with adolescents and young people aged 11 to 25 in schools and communities, helping them build aspiration, agency, leadership and the confidence to speak up, and it uses media to shape public conversations. Over time it has reached more than 5.4 million young people. Because of this work, girls are staying in school, delaying marriage and choosing their own paths, while boys are stepping up to support equal rights for all. This role sits within Breakthrough's Individual Fundraising (IFR) programme, which raises support from individual donors to keep this work going. breakthrough (1).jpeg
