Too many leaders today view human rights as the problem. We know human rights are the solution. They are the foundation of peace. They are the engine of progress. And they are the path out of conflict & chaos to security & hope.

This small building may look simple but it's having a huge impact on girls education. It is a latrine and wash room for girls at SSHJM Chele school. Previously, girls would miss school esp. during their menstrual cycle, now they have the privacy and space they require. 👏🏿🎓
