We exist to provide the platform, resources and support needed to make girls’ voices heard and ignite women-led change.

Global Girl Project is a not-for-profit charitable organisation. We work directly with local grassroots NGOs (non-government organisations) in each of our partner countries.

Mission, Purpose, Vision

Our mission is to mobilise girls around the globe for social change through community development and social action. Through our innovative programming we ignite the leadership ambitions of our girls to be changemakers in their communities.

Our Story

Founded in 2014 by Julia Lynch, Global Girl Project started out as an in-person cultural exchange and leadership experience for girls in the Majority World. From its roots in an exchange programme, Global Girl Project has now transitioned into a full leadership organisation.

Team and Board

Learn about our Director, Julia Lynch, our Programme Manager Hannah White-Steele and meet our team of Local Programme Facilitators. We are also supported by a skilled and diverse Board of Directors.

A Feminist Organisation

We are a women-led organisation. Our founder, our staff, our facilitators and our board chair all identify as women. In addition, the majority of our team are women of colour which is very unusual in the NGO space. We believe it’s important that our girls see themselves represented at every level of the organisation and we see this diversity as one of our greatest strengths.
