Our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion
Girl Effect is on an ambitious and transformative journey to become a leader in diversity, equity and inclusion. We are committed to building the kind of team and inclusive organization where talent belongs, grows, is challenged, and challenges others to be better and do better.
Our strength and unique proposition lies in our diversity; from different voices, perspectives and experiences which all add up to a rich
culture, helping us be a great place to work and grow.
Everything we do is firmly grounded in the principles of equity. We continually examine, review and optimize the policies and processes that
guide our employee experience and inform our decision making.
We are committed to creating an ever-more inclusive working environment, where everyone is able to fulfill their potential and maximize their contribution.
