Survey responses ‘Girls Rate Beijing’ continue to pour in from Good Shepherd Ministries throughout the world. I am very excited about this. In my post of February 13th we had the following Malaysia (16) Madagascar (21) Myanmar (12) Nepal (4) India (106) Philippines (12) Mexico (131) New York (Cathedral High School -whole school), Good Shepherd Services, NY.
Updating today – Malaysia (40), Indonesia 170, Pakistan 55, Australia 6, Chicago 1, Central America – we are identifying the country (17), Macau 25, Sri Lanka 65, Taiwan 66 and Colombia 33. This is a total of 880 survey replies. Well done! Responses will be accepted unto March 20th, 2015 the last day of CSW59 Beijing+20
Girls who were not yet born when Beijing was taking place in 1995 are reviewing their experiences of day to day life at home, in school, and in their community with regard to schooling, household chores, work, safety, access to health services, and technology . There are a few questions related to girls rights, knowledge of right, legislation for implementation of girls’ rights within the country, and girls leadership positions. The preliminary results of this survey will be shared during a parallel event on Tuesday March 10, 2015 between 10.30 and 12.00 noon at the Salvation Army Auditorium on East 52nd Street, NY.
In our effort for full compliance, as of today we have 460 of our 600 students who have completed the survey and will continue until the deadline towards full compliance.
Thanks Maximilian for this great work affording girls the opportunity to know about the 4th World Conference and giving them the opportunity to rate its success based on their experiences. Blessings, Winifred
