Lead Like A Girl 2020 Workshops
The theme of this year’s online Lead Like a Girl Conference is "Environmental Sustainability and Consciousness". The conference will focus on enhancing leadership in sustainable practices and exploring leadership roles in related fields. Our goal through incorporating this particular theme is to provide the students with a specialized set of leadership skills and inspire initiatives to better equip girls to become agents of change in their own communities.
Workshop One: Leading in Sustainable Arts
Leadership Outcome:
Be a leader on a medium scale- within your community! By collecting old clothing and repurposing it, you can make a positive impact within your community regarding waste production. One aspect of being a leader can be to change the thinking and actions of others.
Workshop Two: Leading in Sustainable Farming
Leadership Outcome:
Be a leader on a small scale- within your family! Planting a garden and choosing foods that are local and sustainably produced can influence others to do the same. One aspect of being a leader is to inspire others.
