Why
Women and girls in rural regions of the world play a critical role in helping their communities thrive. Yet they face obstacles to accessing education, paid work, reproductive and maternal healthcare, and safety from gender-based violence. Walking long distances to reach services, attend a job training or go to a class requires daylight, time, and safety risks.
With bicycles, entrepreneurs can launch businesses, girls can commute to school, and women can leave roadside harassers in the dust.
