InDifesa Campaign Press Conference

Sala Monumentale - Presidenza del Consiglio dei Ministri - Largo Chigi, 19 - Roma

All over the world little girls still are the silent and invisible victims of violence, abuse, traffic and poverty.  The continuous violation of their rights and discrimination of all types bring about their lesser access to education, nourishment and health care, and make them the victims of cultural, social, economic and social exploitation. This happens also in the more developed countries where young and little girls are most at risk of always being runners-up.

On the occasion of the first UN Day  of Child Girl, Terre des Hommes Italy presents the dossier “The condition of baby girls and adolescent girls in the world” and its campaign in their defence in order to guarantee them education, health care, protection from violence and abuse the world over.
