Our Programs
WEN empowers young women through a diverse range of programs that go beyond educational experiences.
Our programs are life-changing journeys that spark the desire to make a change.
GLOW Global Cohort
Women Empowering Nations provides young women 17-23 with an immersive three-month virtual leadership development experience building the next generation of social impact executive leaders. Participants gain global exposure and executive coaching from industry experts rooted in mental well-being, storytelling, advocacy, values-based leadership, and service. The cohort concludes with a global day of service that all members participate in around the world to impact their local communities.
GLOW R.I.S.E.
In-School Program
The Girls Leading Our World R.I.S.E. Program is designed to empower middle and high school girls by developing their leadership skills, enhancing their mental well-being, and postsecondary exposure.

Girls' mentoring experience culminates with the opportunity to participate in a Girl Leading Our World travel seminar where they travel abroad to participate in the travel seminar, leadership development, and service opportunities with young women from around the world.
