Hannah Garcia+FollowUS Bails on Global Poverty SummitWorld leaders are meeting in Spain to figure out how to raise trillions to fight poverty, but the US just noped out.

Nicole Snyder+FollowCutting Girls’ Education? Make It Make SenseThe UK’s slashing aid for girls’ education abroad, and honestly, it’s wild.

Feels like we’re forgetting the basics: education changes everything, especially for girls. #GirlsEducation #AidCuts #GlobalDevelopment #InvestInGirls #EducationMatters #Education44Share
