My Granddaughter, Georgie

Georgie is five months old, and already a global citizen. She lives with her parents in a vibrant multi-cultural city on the other side of the world, in one of the most dangerous countries for women and girls. She is lucky - she has a home, working parents, good health care, choices. What do I hope for her? That we can make for her a different future, where all little girls, not just the lucky ones, have the right to grow in safety, to learn, thrive and fulfil their enormous promise; to be valued for themselves and their unique human-ness, not according to gender, ethnicity, class, or religion; and to have a planet on which they and their children can flourish. Don't all grandparents want this?
