<p>DFID’s <strong>Strategic Vision</strong> for Girls and Women, published in 2011,
sets out four, interlinked game-changing ‘pillars’ critical for empowering girls and
women:</p><p>1. Girls’ completion of primary and secondary education</p><p>2. Economic
empowerment</p><p>3. Ability to live free from violence</p><p>4. Universal sexual
and reproductive health and rights.</p><p>DFID is committed to delivering the Prime
Minister’s promise on tackling modern slavery and the 2015 government manifesto. ‘We
will promote girls’ education, encourage equal access to property rights and work
to achieve access to family planning for everyone who wants it. We will continue to
lead efforts to tackle violence against women and girls, end FGM and combat early
and forced marriage, both at home and abroad’.</p>
