Why we need to inspire girls.
A lack of self-confidence, pressure of gender stereotypes and limited access to female role models affects girls all around the world.
These statistics won’t change if we don’t intervene early in a girls’ life. Early interventions that promote girls’ self-confidence significantly help to narrow gender gaps in school and then later in life.

We focus on youth education, female empowerment and employment-enhancing skills to inspire girls to dream big and reach their full potential!
At Inspiring Girls Australia, we connect young girls with female role models through workshops, presentations and online resources.
They have to see it, to be it!
Connecting girls with women role models is one of the first steps in breaking down gender stereotypes.
Girls need to be exposed to more inspirational women working in different sectors, to show that there are many paths they can choose to take.
