At every stage of development, girls are more likely than boys to confront a progression of disadvantages associated with violence and discrimination. Even with decades of laws, treaties, conferences, and resolutions at the local, national, regional and international levels, these difficulties accompanying being young and feminine, condemn millions of girls to the sidelines of the society. There, girls remain mostly invisible, their human rights habitually abused and violated, and their welfare trailing behind that of boys.
It has been factual in recent times that girls account for more than 80% of new HIV infections in adolescents in the worst hit countries with over 380,000,000 adolescent girls infected with HIV every year; in other words, 7,300,000 every week, more than 1,000,000 every day. Moreover, HIV/AIDS remains the leading cause of death for girls and women ages 15–45, around the world.
Tackling violence and discrimination faced by girls, and ensuring their access to the same basic opportunities as boys, is crucial to the realization of their basic human rights and achieving the UN’s “sustainable Development Goals 2030.”
