Our Commitment to
gender equity and
sustainable change
GRLS is dedicated to creating meaningful change for adolescent girls worldwide, with a particular focus on those who are most marginalised. Our Theory of Change reflects the full scope of GRLS’ work and is grounded in a firm belief that advancing girls’ rights through sport can drive gender equity and enable sustainable, long-term change.
The TOC guides our development of evidence-based strategies, informs project monitoring and management, and provides a framework for evaluation and impact assessment.
Long Term Outcomes + Lasting Impact
- Community champions enable girls’ rights through sport
- Increased quality and scale of girls’ rights though sport programmes
- Improved capacities, policies, and practices of implementing organisations
- More cross-sectoral support and investment for girls’ rights through sport programmes
We anticipate that scaled-up, cost-effective, quality programming that reaches more girls, alongside stronger leadership at both community and sectoral level, will result in these longer-term girl-level outcomes. Changes at this level will be sustained by changes in families, communities, and societies.
