THE PUGGLE:
Out in the bush, you’ll have to go into the pouch of a mama echidna to pet her baby puggle. Our Puggle is easier to find, showing up every month to share what we’re learning about emerging issues in girls’ education. Browse the archives below.
OUR APPROACH TO PHILANTHROPY:
We strive to be transparent, flexible, and rooted in trust. We are committed to listening and learning from our grantees and partners to iterate, streamline, and update our approach and processes. Browse posts about what we're learning and doing below.

For our final Puggle of the year, we center the voices and hopes of girls themselves to hear what they dream for their future education. May we all continue to help make their wishes come true in the year ahead.
As you read the wishes of girls’ below, keep this festive tune in mind to sing along with The Sound of Music’s “These Are a Few of My Favorite Things” 🎶
This wish list draws from the following initiatives, which aimed to elevate girls’ own voices in education decision-making in 2022:
Malala Fund’s Girl Fellow Consultation for the Girls’ Education Report Card. Research and Policy Manager Naomi Nyamweya conducted a body mapping exercise to identify what Malala Fund’s Girl Fellows themselves wish to “change in their schooling and education to help them achieve their dreams”
The resolutions produced during MAYEIN’s inaugural Girls in Education Dialogues (GED). 2021 Echidna Global Scholar Edem Ossai’s GED initiative empowered 100 secondary schoolgirls to directly present policy proposals for better education to the Oyo State Government during the first ever Oyo Schoolgirls General Assembly in Nigeria
We are grateful for your important work, and hope to hear even more from girls in 2023!
Wishing you all a restful and rejuvenating holiday season and year end. We look forward to turning even more girls’ dreams into realities with you next year (so please do rest up!)
