Girls Leadership Index (GLI) analysis and report development

Background

The GLI is part of Plan International’s Asia Girls Report that explores the situation of girls and young women in Asia Pacific region including a broad discussion of the complex and dynamic transition girls undertake through adolescence into adulthood. The GLI a ground-breaking tool that quantifies opportunities available to girls in seven key domains: education, health, economic empowerment, protection, political participation, legal frameworks, and climate spanning 33 countries in Asia and the Pacific. This data-driven approach empowers advocacy efforts and drives targeted interventions, ultimately paving the way for a brighter future for girls in the APAC region.

This year, Plan APAC regional hub updated its 2024 GLI and examined changes and key trends on the situation of girls’ leadership in countries of focus across all seven domains, taking to account current regional and/or global factors that may have created impact on the situations under those domains.
