Our approach is different.
We don’t talk down to girls. We listen.
The girls we serve have high goals for themselves — and we have high expectations for the leaders who can help them achieve their goals. Malala Fund created Assembly, a digital publication and newsletter, as a platform for girls to speak out about the issues holding them back.
Where we Work
Delivering tangible change in targeted geographies
In the next five years, Malala Fund will significantly increase our investment in our network of education advocates and expand in up to 10 new countries, at a rate of one to two countries per year.

We are realistic about the work ahead. We know there are no straight lines or overnight solutions to getting all girls in school and learning.
By 2025, we want to see a substantial increase in well-educated girls in the countries where we work, improved and better-financed education systems and communities that offer girls equal opportunities to learn and actively support their ambitions.

Commitment to accountability
Malala Fund holds leaders accountable for their commitments to girls — and we hold ourselves to the same standards. We regularly assess our impact, apply findings to future work and share our results.
