Girl Talk: Building our Future

Girl Talk tackles gaps in the education system that allow gendered brilliance bias to persist and aims to offset its negative impacts so that girls feel empowered in themselves and their abilities. Through increasing confidence and developing important life skills such as leadership, entrepreneurship, communication, and personal financial planning, girls will be equipped to build successful, fulfilling lives for themselves as they enter post-secondary life.
