Apply for Girls Takeover 2023 Take Over the General Manager Role of Kimberly-Clark Hong Kong Ltd.!
What is Girls Takeover?
As global citizens, girls also care about social and political issues. Yet, when young women intervened, their voice is often unheard. Since 2016, Plan International has organized Girls Takeover globally to tear down barriers of discrimination and prejudice that continue to hold girls back. Through the campaign, girls take over the role of leader or senior management for a day to demand equal power, freedom and the right to be there without being silenced or ignored, ensuring all girls can Learn, Lead, Decide and Thrive.
This year, we are honoured to collaborate with Kimberly-Clark Hong Kong Ltd. and offer our participant a chance to work with Ms Stella Chun, the General Manager of the company on 11 Oct 2023, the International Day of the Girl Child.
Theme of Girls Takeover 2023
• Equal Power: Support girls to become leaders and take part in the decision-making that affects their lives #EqualPowerNow
• Equal Representation: Challenge discrimination and gender stereotype to make room for the truthful representation of young women’s stories. #RewriteHerStory
