    ALL-GIRL learning ENVIRONMENT

    Global research shows that all-girl environments enable girls to learn effectively without being influenced by widely prevalent stereotypes. There is a huge need in India today for programmes that tie in adolescent leadership experiences with long-term success for girls. We aim to bridge that gap.
