Core values

  1. We believe that the full participation of women at all levels of decision-making is crucial to create peaceful and inclusive societies.
  2. We are youth-driven and youth-led: we believe in the power of young women to create and lead change. We recognize both their current contributions and their future potential. Young women have the passion and the vision to create change in their communities, but simply lack the resources, networks and support to do so.
  3. We are locally owned and sustainable: we aim to change systems by empowering young women to be leaders. Entrenched problems such as gender discrimination can only be overcome by investing in a new generation of female leaders working alongside men.
  4.   We listen, respect and value of all our partners. 
    1. Girls: we are working with the girls, not for them.
    2. Boys and men: We understand that working with girls in isolation is counterproductive. We engage boys in some of our programs, such as the School LEADership program.
    3. Schools, communities, non profits: We engage every sphere of the girls’ lives, from their homes to their classrooms to the organizations they dream of working for.

5. We are a learning organization. We are constantly reflecting and growing.
