GLOBAL GIRL MEDIA (GGM) develops the voice and media literacy of teenage girls and young women, ages 14-22, in underserved communities by teaching them to create and share digital journalism designed to break gender boundaries, ignite community activism and spark social change. Through mentoring, training and access to a worldwide network of trans-media distribution partners, GGM seeks to break the cycle of poverty, violence and school drop-outs of vulnerable teenage girls through making media that matters, improving news literacy, and encouraging the promotion of healthier media messages about girls and women the world over.
