The European Week of Action for Girls (EWAG) will launch in Brussels for a full week (8-12 October) around the International Day of the Girl Child. For this edition, as the European Parliament elections are approaching, EWAG focuses on advocacy by girls, for girls, in Europe and beyond.

Girl advocates will gather in Brussels for a full day of capacity-building on the European Union, particularly on what the Parliament can and should do to empower girls to enjoy their rights around the world. This will inform and support their meetings with a number of MEPs from various political groups.
