Its analysis demonstrates how the girls use participation in the campaign to develop their own more complex, radical and collective visions of girls' empowerment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosie Walters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1529238455\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781529238457\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bristol University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/24\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.12lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Rosie Walters","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46974609490175,"sku":"9781529238457","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_98ca9dae-9e3b-44ac-a24c-73dcf005aa5f.jpg?v=1750875532","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/girls-power-and-international-development-rosie-walters-9781529238457","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
