The Girl Power groups formed by World Vision India in the communities we serve in Siliguri empowers young girls and sensitises them on how they should be aware, prevent and address issues like child marriage and trafficking, which is highly prevalent in these areas.

Volunteers like Ithy, instil confidence in the girls, boost their self-esteem and make them understand that their life is more than staying indoors and taking care of their families.

Girl Power groups also uses sports like football as a tool to teach them about these important issues. There are 80 girl power groups in Siliguri with 25 to 30 girls in each group. Ithy heads ten girls power groups.
