There is no doubt: The time for girls—and girls’ schools around the world—is now. In recent years, people across the globe have come together to support one another and to develop creative solutions for navigating this new world. Our girls’ school students have had the unique opportunity to witness global changemaking happening in real time on an unparalleled scale. What is most inspiring is that so much of the change and progress has been directed by girls and women. Girls’ schools provide unique benefits that catalyze important progress, and the people who power those schools help to prepare the young leaders of today to embrace all of the opportunities and challenges that lie before them.
Many of the world’s most gifted educators and professionals are found working in girls’ schools. With more than 550 member schools, the International Coalition of Girls’ Schools is a richly diverse network of schools in every sector in more than 25 countries. Join us in this important work!
