The Because I am a Girl song highlights the challenges girls face across the African continent, where millions of teenage girls are pushed out of school through forced or early marriage, gender-based violence and discrimination.
Produced by some of the leading African musicians, South Africa's Yvonne Chaka Chaka, Oliver Mtukudzi of Zimbabwe and Suzanna Owiyo from Kenya, the song was released to celebrate and promote the global launch of Plan's Because I am a Girl campaign marking the first UN International day of the Girl, on 11 October 2012.Check out the video
