Starlets For Change is an initiative that aims at empowering & providing a platform for female football players & other female athletes within South Sudan to develop themselves off sports activities. #BeingTheDifference #WomenPower #WomenEmpowerment #SSOT

"Our support aims to contribute to the vision that every woman, girl, & youth in 🇸🇸 should be able to enjoy SRH & Rights of high quality, increased equality between women and men & that gender-related violence, including child marriage, decreases” @tomasbrundin #Musharaka4Tanmiya

Thanks @SweinSouthSudan for funding to @UNFPA #SouthSudan integrated SRH services - for the well-being of women, girls & young people; ✅Quality of care & services ✅Gender Equality & Social Norms ✅Population data & evidence ✅Humanitarian Response ✅Adolescents and Youth

Child marriage threatens girls’ lives, health, & it limits their future prospects. They often become pregnant while still adolescents, increasing the risk of complications in pregnancy/childbirth. @UNFPA🇸🇸 promotes policies & programs to end child marriage. #Mushara4Tanmiya

Women (and girls) in boxing challenge gender stereotypes🥊! We will partner with these ladies to ensure that they are not only champions in the ring, but also advocates for the transformation of social norms and #genderequality in 🇸🇸 #Musharaka4Tanmiya

Another milestone worth celebrating! 👏Well done @UNFPASouthSudan & South Sudan Boxing Federation. Congratulations to all, especially our fellow sisters; the female boxers. #Musharaka4Tanmiya #womenempowerment

“Your support to us is not in vain, this facility will make us comfortable, in most cases when the girls are in their menses, changing becomes difficult “ 🙏UNFPA 🇸🇸& other partners who made this possible. @EtherLewis, captain -Bright starlets. #Musharaka4Tanmiya

"There are no changing rooms & washroom facilities on most of the playgrounds that we have here. And so having these facilities at buluk playground is really a great achievement for us as Starlets for Change Organization" - Grace #RadioMiraya #RestoringTheLostDignity #SSOT

I cannot be more proud of all of you at @starlets4change for pushing the agenda for #equality #endchildmarriage and advocating for #education for the girl child. Highlighting #periodpoverty and the challenges female athletes face. ❤️🙏 we stand with you, always 💯👏

Exciting to see the girls have finally got a place for self-care during football match. South Sudan girls have talent but lack of infrastructure to manage natural body functions such as menstruation was a challenge. Thanks @UNFPA & @NLinSouthSudan for the donation.

Why is it important for girls to participate in sports activities? Nertherland Ambassador @MSchip explains. #SSOT

Words alone can't be enough to express how grateful we are for this great achievement. It wasn't an easy journey but we thank God. The launching event was a success! Once again, thanks to @NLinSouthSudan @UNFPASouthSudan @ssfa_com #SSOT 📸 UNFPA Media

Being a strong woman is not about being mean or aggressive but about being assertive, confident and secure within yourself and your abilities #banatpower @CanSouthSudan @CareSouthSudan @EUinSouthSudan @NLinSouthSudan @OlajideDemola @SweinSouthSudan @unicefssudan @unwomenssudan
