De ce grand pays solitaire
Je crie avant que de me taire
À tous les hommes de la terre
Ma maison, c'est votre maison

Entre ses quatre murs de glace
Je mets mon temps et mon espace
À préparer le feu, la place
Pour les humains de l'horizon
Et les humains sont de ma race.

Worldwide, parties to armed conflicts have damaged critical healthcare infrastructure. In some cases, they have also killed or held captive patients and healthcare workers.

This leaves millions of people in armed conflict areas without a choice.

When a crisis hits, girls don’t just lose their homes or schools.

They lose their safety. Their choices. Their childhoods.

No girl should be forced to marry - not in conflict, not in crisis, not ever.

Every girl has a right to protection and to decide her future. Always. #GirlGoals
