Hardly a month goes by without us learning of the international recognition Betty received for her work and that of the Girl Child Network. Most recently Betty received the World Children's Prize for the Rights of the Child (WCPRC) in Sweden.
Betty was selected via a global vote of children with 6 million children in 89 countries. In accepting her award Betty stated that:
"It is quite humbling that I have received this award... I want to make it known that the award is the result of commitment to the upholding of women and girl's rights in Zimbabwe and I would like to thank and honor all those who help us back home in our empowerment and girl's rights programs".
IDEX congratulates Betty on this prestigious award!
