Ipas Africa Southern Region (ASR) joined the world to commemorate the International Day of the Girl Child reflecting on this year’s theme: Invest in Girls’ Rights: Our Leadership, Our Well-being.
The United Nations General Assembly on 19 December 2011, adopted Resolution 66/170 declaring October 11 as the International Day of the Girl Child, recognizing girls’ rights and the unique challenges girls face around the world.

Ipas Africa Southern Region (ASR) has taken a significant leap forward by registering as a nonprofit organization in South Africa, governed by a board of trustees.
