HUGE congratulations to YJI board member Holly Hostettler-Davies, who last night was named the Rising Star of the Year at the 2025 awards ceremony of the SheInspires Foundation at Bolton Football Stadium. The award highlights the achievements and journeys of exceptional women who provide inspiration and guidance to the next generation of leaders. Holly's work founding and launching a youth board for the Menstrual Health Project, her developing the sex education curriculum in a region of Ghana this year and her role in a campaign that made public sexual harassment illegal in England and Wales were some of the achievements that led to her selection for the prize. Of course, Holly has always been a star in YJI. We are so proud of her and thrilled that she is getting much-deserved recognition! ... See MoreSee Less

Aboard the presidential plane recently, reporter Catherine Lucey of Bloomberg News asked Donald Trump why he had not yet released the Epstein files. His response to her: "Quiet! Quiet, piggy."Our response to that: Is this the worst, most disgusting thing this president has done to women or to journalists? No, it's just his latest insult to half the global population. But it is worth taking the time to understand the far-reaching damage of his words.Since YJI's founding in 1994, this small charity has worked with many hundreds of aspiring reporters, photographers and artists, the majority of them girls and young women. Our program, which is free for students, empowers them. They learn that they can have an impact and that their voice matters.Some of these girls live in places like Afghanistan and Iran, where gender discrimination is written into law and harshly enforced. YJI shows them that society can be better, but when the president of the United States thinks nothing of tossing off sexist slurs to silence a question from a woman reporter, it erodes their hopes for a brighter future. And is both shameful and indefensible. ... See MoreSee Less

🎉 Happy International Men’s Day! 💪🌍Today we raise awareness for men and boys everywhere — and reflect on what masculinity really means.🇬🇧 Reporter Matty Ennis wrote about how traditional gender roles can trap boys in a “suffocating box of masculinity,” where showing emotion or vulnerability is often seen as weakness. 💭His story is a powerful reminder that strength also means empathy, honesty, and being true to yourself. 🌟❤️ Help YJI by donating at helpyji.org🔗 Read at youthjournalism.org/gender-roles-trap-boys-in-a-suffocating-box-of-masculinity/-----#youthjournalisminternational #journalism #education #archivepost #fromourarchives #youthjournalism #worldmenday #genderroles #men #worldmensday #masculinity #toxicmasculinity #man #stereotype #cliche #harmful #feminism #awareness ...
