About Us

We Are a Leading Youth-Led Organization Driving Sustainable Development

Global Learning for Sustainability (GLS), one of the key implementing partners of the She Leads programme in Wakiso & Kampala districts, is a youth and young women-led organization founded in 2015. Initially established as a life skills education program, GLS gained Non-Government Organization (NGO) status with charity registration in 2018. We later refined our strategy to address sustainable challenges aligned with the following Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):

SDG 4: Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.
SDG 5: Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.
SDG 13: Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts.

Education

We provide quality education programs that ensure girls and young women have access to learning opportunities that empower them to succeed and lead.

Leadership & Advocacy Training:

We offer comprehensive training programs that equip girls and young women with leadership skills necessary to influence decision-making processes and advocate for gender equality.

Economic Empowerment:

Through initiatives like the FREE GIRLS Clubs, we support young women in developing employability skills, achieving financial resilience, and attaining economic freedom.
