About
Girl Effect
Girl
Effect works to break the cycle of intergenerational poverty. We do this by
connecting girls to each other and to the critical assets they need. We work to
create lasting perception change by harnessing media in innovative ways and
building social networks to develop girls’ positive perceptions of themselves
and shift how others see and value them.
We
take a girl-centred approach to the challenges they face. We know that girls
need support in multiple areas to break the cycle of poverty – focusing on
single issues will never be enough. Only a holistic approach will work, so we
developed the 5+1 Theory of Change to put this into action.
We
believe there are 5 key assets that determine a girl’s reality and 1 critical
catalyst – perception change – that inspires behaviour change that creates
empowered lives. The 5 key assets are: EducationHealthEconomic SecuritySafety, and Voice and Rights
When
a girl is better educated, has access to sexual and reproductive healthcare
information and services, has access and control of economic assets, is safe
from violence and exploitation, and has the capabilities and confidence to make
positive choices, she can break the cycle of poverty.
We
currently operate in Rwanda, Nigeria and Ethiopia with headquarters in London.

Effect Rwanda uses the power of brand thinking to promote positive social norm
and behaviour change amongst girls and their communities in Rwanda. Ni
Nyampinga is Rwanda’s first teen brand, developed by and for girls, redefining
what it means to be an adolescent girl in their community. Launched in November
2011 it has become established as a much loved and trusted brand, rooted in
Rwandan culture.  Ni Nyampinga is an idea, an identity. It’s something
that both belongs to, and is created by, Rwandan teenage girls. Translated
as “a girl who is beautiful inside and out and makes good decisions”,
the term ‘Ni Nyampinga’ is a potent one in Rwandan culture. 
Since
its launch as a quarterly magazine and weekly radio shows by Rwandan girl
journalists, there is a rich tale to tell about Ni Nyampinga, with some
exciting early signs of impact.
