Mentoring Generations
Mentoring future generations is one of the most powerful ways to create a lasting positive change in society. When we invest time, energy, and resources in mentoring the youth, we enrich their lives and ensure their future is brighter and more prepared to tackle the world’s evolving challenges. That is why Girls in Lead (GIL) aim to provide young girls and women with a platform of guidance, resources, networking opportunities, and inclusive support to develop leadership skills, decision-making, and confidence to build a strong pipeline for future generations working closely with successful female mentors who can demonstrate that leadership is attainable, even in challenging or traditional environments.
