‘Girls lead’ project has provided innovative and flexible ways for young women to get involved in entrepreneurial and social learning, enabling them to act as a force for change in their local communities and in wider society, and thus to overcome deprivation, inequality, educational disadvantage and social exclusion. The project raises awareness of needs of changing girls’ attitudes towards leadership and entrepreneurial thinking and learning by showing clear pathways to excellence.
“Girls lead” develops a culture of initiative among young women, builds their leadership skills and helps them realise their first enterprising ideas. Actions were accomplished in four steps: first step was to inspire the girls; second – to train them with regards to leadership skills; third – to help them network; fourth – to let them get involved and act.
