🚨LinkedIn - can you help? Sultana Tafadar KC (King’s Counsel) who made history in 2022 as the first hijab-wearing criminal barrister to take silk, and also won the "Barrister of the Year" award at the Next 100 Years Inspirational Women in Law Awards 2022, has created a unique initiative to help girls understand human rights - the Girls Human Rights Hub Next week, they are hosting The Girls Human Rights Festival - a 5-day event which aims to bring girls' human rights to the forefront of global dialogue. You can see that our patron, Lady Hale, will be one of the speakers giving up their time to speak to girls during the Leadership day The festival champions the idea that every girl should shape her destiny free from discrimination and violence. By focusing specifically on girls human rights, it offers a nurturing platform to cultivate essential advocacy, leadership, and litigation skills. And now, the *ask*: to keep attendance for girls free, they are looking for some more support from individuals and organisations to reach a target of around £5,000 to cover the cost for the festival. We hope some of you can support them financially - every little will help! ❗️Donation link in comments below Ps: To say "Thank you" to anyone who can assist with £500 or more, those individuals are invited to choose to attend either an evening reception at the UK Supreme Court (19 February) or tea at the House of Lords (23 February). For organsiations, Sultana can explain what this partnership packages include. Both receptions will be attended by some of the very high profile speakers and supporters. Please do share this message if you know others who might be interested to lend their support. #girls #girlseducation #girlsrights #legalprofession #humanrights
