Passionately for the best interest of the girl child, A story of Ann Resiano


Anne is a mother to three daughters and a teacher who loves human rights. She has been a HRD for the last 16 years having started her human rights work within her profession as a teacher. Her focus is on girl child rights especially right to education and advocating against harmful cultural practices.

Her greatest achievement is her continued work in rescuing girls from early marriage and harmful cultural practices and getting them back to school. In a patriarchal pastoralist society, speaking against violation of girls has not been without its challenges. She has been negatively proled, excommunicated from church and physically assaulted. Having good friends who support her and a network of partner organisations has helped her deal with the challenges.
