The Coalition for Adolescent Girls and Advocates for Youth present a parallel event at CSW60 entitled “Listen. Learn. Engage. Strategies and Tools for Meaningful Adolescent Girl Engagement.”

Adolescent girls are the true experts in understanding and responding to the critical issues that shape their daily lives and the obstacles they face in realizing their potential. This parallel event will engage adolescent girls and promote inter-generational dialogue between adolescent girls and the adults who work with them. The event will include a presentation about the Partners and Allies Toolkit on Meaningful Adolescent Girl Engagement and feature girl-led interactive group discussions on issues including empowerment, human rights, and sustainable development.

The event will be held at the Church Center for the United Nations, Boss Room at 6:15PM EDT on March 17, 2016.
