Clearly, any scheme to empower the girl child also radically changes the mind-sets of an entire ecosystem. For this, powerful figures, family members, teachers, and women are permanently changed, as they find themselves enablers of a culture of repression. This is where NGOs like Save the Children come in, fill in the blanks and work hand in the hand with the government on this noble mission. Saving the girl child is no more a matter of just humanity, but is also something that affects economic growth.
