Girl Rising chose NGO partners who are widely viewed to have best-practice programs serving girls around the world. NGO partners are working in at least one Girl Rising country and committed to hosting the Girl Rising film team in one of the Girl Rising countries they serve.
In addition, Girl Rising NGOs are complementary in their approach to interventions on behalf of girls. For example, CARE serves girls and women generally, while Room To Read is a literacy-focused organization. This is important because getting girls into school, keeping them there, and making sure they learn relies on a holistic approach that includes life-skills training, health training, the provision of safe-spaces, as well as traditional academic training.
NGO partners must have an enthusiasm for the collaborative spirit of Girl Rising and must be open to building a coalition of support for girls that includes other Girl Rising NGO partners, Girl Rising corporate partners, Girl Rising policy leaders and grassroots distribution partners. NGOs must have a superior Charity Navigator rating and must meet high standards for transparency and accountability.
