October 11 marks International Day of the Girl, an occasion dedicated to promoting girls' rights and addressing inequalities. This year, Plan International Canada is releasing a short documentary titled 'I Have a Name,' which aims to shed light on the experiences of girls who often go unseen in society. The film explores the challenges faced by these girls and highlights the importance of recognizing their individuality and rights.
To accompany the film's release, a panel discussion will be moderated by journalist Lisa LaFlamme. The panel includes filmmaker Ditsi Carolino, Joel Dizon from Plan International Philippines, and Tanja Suvilaakso from Plan International Canada. This discussion will provide an opportunity for audiences to engage with the themes of the documentary and understand the broader context of girls' rights in Canada and globally.
As awareness around gender equality continues to grow, events like these play a crucial role in amplifying the voices of girls and advocating for their rights. Plan International Canada aims to drive conversations around this important issue through initiatives such as 'I Have a Name.'
